Stephen (Steve) Malone was born October 18, 1994, to Kevin A. Moody and the late Angela Malone of El Dorado, AR. He transitioned into his eternal rest at Baptist Health Medical Center on July 02, 2025, surrounded by his loved ones.

Steve attended El Dorado High School and graduated with the class of 2014. He later attended Little Rock Job Corps. Stephen was baptized at an early age at Union Arc Missionary Baptist Church, where he was a member and attended church with his grandfather, Jerry Moody.

Steve was one of the kindest people that you would ever meet. He was a devoted and loving son, grandson, brother, uncle, cousin, and friend to many. He enjoyed cooking, grilling, listening to music, playing his video games, but mostly just sitting on the porch hanging with Grandpa Jerry and enjoying the company of family and neighbors. During his time on earth, he was deeply loved and brought immense joy to those who knew him. Steve truly stole the hearts of many and will be sorely missed.

Steve is preceded in death by his mother Angela, paternal grandparents, Jerry and Elaine Moody, Uncle Eddie Malone Jr., and Cousin Jayden Moody.

Stephen will forever be loved and cherished by his father Kevin (Yolanda)Moody. His two sisters: Christine (Devario) Land and Yakiya Moody. His three brothers; Christopher Gray, Katevian Moody, and Kevonte' Moody all of El Dorado, Arkansas. Maternal grandparents Susie Ellen Welch of El Dorado and Eddie Malone Sr. of Little Rock. Aunts Shanta (Christopher) Robinson and Monica Malone. Uncles Cedric (Shakerah) Moody, Robert (Eureka) Malone; and a host of nieces, nephews, and relatives who will miss him dearly.
