HANSEN-KEE - Malaina Shae Hansen-Kee passed away peacefully at the age of 25 after a long battle with terminal brain cancer and then the effects of the treatments. On June 18, 2019, 18 years later, she gracefully gained her wings ascending the steps to the open arms of our Lord, Jesus Christ; Grandma, Jan Suschill; Great Grandmother, Gladys Listing and Grandpa, Joe Kee. Supermoms don’t wear capes, but they sleep in hospital beds snuggling their sick babies until the pain is gone. Mom, Beth (Dan) Kee, who survives, did just that. Also surviving, sister, Talissa Hansen; brother, Shamus Kee; grandparents, Richard (Sharon) Suschil and Sue Kee; aunts and uncles, Jim (Renee) Suschil, Paula (Jay) Rule, Cyndi (Keith) Nelson, Shannon (John) Katerberg; many more relatives and friends. A graduate of Cedar Springs High School, Malaina loved animals, family and fishing. She was brave and inspiring to us all. Malaina’s visitation is 9 to noon on Saturday, June 22 at Stegenga Funeral Chapel, 1601 Post Drive NE, Belmont with her funeral immediately following. In lieu of flowers, please contribute to the Make A Wish Foundation or at Stegenga’s to assist with mounting care costs. Most importantly, Malaina’s last wish, please, wear pink in her honor this weekend - #Pink4Malaina. Visit and share at the family’s online guestbook at www.stegengafuneralchapel.com. Checks for the family to assist with expenses should be payable to Beth Kee. To send flowers or a memorial gift to the family of Malaina Shae Hansen-Kee please visit our Sympathy Store.

Malaina became my best friend in 7th grade, I was brand new in Cedar Springs, and she opened me with welcoming arms. We had plently of sleepovers, staying up late talking about who knows what, watching movies, and etc. We started the first day of middle school together and walked our high school graduation together ‚ô° Malaina was an absolute angel, she was the greatest friend anyone could ever ask for! Im thankful that I got to see her a few days before she passed. Thank you Beth & family for that. rest in peace Malaina. I love you 💕

I remember the year I taught Malaina’s 3rd grade class at ISJ. We were the cleanest class in the building. We wanted to make sure Malaina could come to class whenever she was up to it. That was the year quite a few of the kids got sick over Christmas break. 😉 I also remember visiting Malaina, both in the hospital & at home, to help her with her studies.
