I will always have such fond memories of Uncle Calvin. His laugh was so contagious. He always had something funny to tell us as kids. What about the time he put the dart on his forehead, what a laugh. The best, is you knew he loved his Lord and Savior first of all then his family always had his heart. I know he is enjoying being reunited with family in heaven but most of all to be at the feet of Jesus. We will see you in the Morning, Uncle Calvin!!
Love, Grace

I will always have wonderful fond memories of Uncle Calvin. I remember all the times I would spend the night at their house and we would go on little day trips. I will also remember him as our Sunday School teacher when we were "newlyweds". I know you are in such a better place now and that you are in the middle of a wonderful "family" reunion. Till we meet again in Heaven, Carol and Jim Walker.

Leave your Condolence
