Trina, James, and Robert,
Please accept my sincere condolences on the passing of your father, and my dear classmate and friend. I was so shocked to learn of his passing, but I am happy that he will be reunited with his loving wife, Violet. I am pleased to be able to say he was loved and will be sorely missed by so many people. He touched many lives and brought joy and love to the young people he mentored. May he rest in peace!

Robert, Larry, Trina, James, Robert, and Family:
My heart goes out to all of you for your loss of a loved one who was an inspiration and friend to many, including me. I learned things from him from afar that I share with others to this day, and expect to continue to pass these things on in years to come. Calvin will rest in peace knowing his job was well-done.
