Malen Arthur Louis-Sturm, the deeply loved son of Scott L. Ogas and Lara M. Strack (Sturm), went home to his Heavenly Father on October 11th, 2022 at 12:40 p.m. He was born on October 29th, 2021 in Milwaukee.

Malen was a bundle of joy and spread smiles and laughter everyday he was on Earth. He loved playing with blocks, any kind of music and had a special fondness for Elmo. He was a gentle soul that had a smile and presence that would entrap everyone he came in contact with.

Malen is survived by his parents, brother Kolten, half-sister Cecilia and half-brothers Gaven, Logan and Sylis, maternal grandmother and maternal grandfather, aunts, uncles and cousins. He was preceded in death by paternal grandparents and maternal grandfather.

A Celebration of Life will take place on October 29th for close family and friends.

The family would like to extend our sincere thanks and deepest gratitude to the paramedics and EMT's that responded, the trauma unit staff, Chaplain Ruth at St. Luke's hospital and the medical staff in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit at Children's Hospital. The care they all showed Malen was heartfelt and compassionate.
