I read about Calvin's passing in the Lubbock newspaper. I am so sorry! He was a wonderful man and a caring father and friend. I was thinking about him the other day since I had not seen him in about 6 years. My heartfelt sympathies for your family!

I am so sorry for your loss. The Bible provides comfort during these difficult times. Revelation 21:3,4...states "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away". Very soon now, we will never experience losing our loved ones in death.
