On behalf of the Mixon Family, we deeply share in your loss. Mr. Lowe was an outstanding man of God who truly expressed the love of Christ. He was a true blessing to my ministry (New Life Ministry of Munford, AL). Everytime I walk into the sanctuary, I thank God for the church pews that he donated. And as a neighbor, he was all of "who is my neighbor?". BLESSINGS UPON BLESSINGS IN JESUS NAME

Mr. Thomas was a special person and friend to me and I think to most people he met. He always had a smile to greet you and always positive about the things he had to say. He made my day when I saw him coming toward me at Wellborn High because I knew he had something good to say. He let me know he had the love of God in his heart and that he loved us all. I know he will be missed by his family and loads of friends around Anniston. Mrs. Hazel, just know I will have you and your family in my prayers and send you my love.

Mr Calvin was a smiling face during a part of my life I rarely saw one. He always had a big smile and a hello to anyone he passed in the halls at Wellborn. My condolences to Calvin Jr, and the rest of the family.

Calvin was one of the kindest persons I´ve ever known. He and Calvin, Jr. both were such a part of my happy memories at Wellborn. Losing him is losing a good friend who was always the same every time I saw him. My prayers are with the family.

You were a great person that was always willing to help us students at Wellborn. I was one that you did help after you stayed at me during my 9th grade year. I was in a car that got hit by the train right below the high-school and broke my ankle, well crushed it. He was always there to help me. He was a man sent from God to help others, even if it was students. He was like no other. God got himself a great angel. Praying for the family during this time of need.
