Roland Hayes Caldwell

The weekend that Roland was to marry Willie, Rose and I hitched a ride with Roland to Athens to stay with Mama Stella. Roland never ran into strangers, he had the gift to make small talk.

I worked with Roland out at Lockheed NASA/JSC for years up until 1985. He was the nicest, kindest, funniest man I've ever known. He was a joy to know and work with. He will forever be missed. My deepest condolences to his family. You are in my thoughts and prayers. God bless.

We were saddened to learn of Bubba's death. Our family will truly miss him. Please know that we are not far, should you ever need us. Love, Kim and Donald Mayo

Bubba was my second cousin,He always made us laugh. He was nice and kind even though I was much younger he treated us with love and respect.He will be missedLove you cousin

When my daddy Roland passed you stood in the gap. Even the night before he passed and said he wanted to have a long conversation with me, I got to have it with you. I thank you for accepting me into your family and home. The holidays we spent together and lunches and even my birthday will not be forgotten. Your spirit was so bright and beautiful! It was a pleasure to be there for you, even on your last night. Thank you !!!!!!!

With deepest sympathy in the lost of your love one Roland Caldwell. May the Lord make his face to shine upon you, and be gracious unto you and give you good health, safety, and peace. God Bless, Rev. Dr. Barbara Thimpson Punch. -Barbara Punch Ministries. (Google)
