Brother McClinton, Jr. - I was so sorry to hear about the death of Brother McClinton, Sr., our dutiful church member. I'm sure your dad had a hand in modeling behaviors that shaped the special person that you are. He was patient and kind, and exhibited a keen sense of humor. I'm hoping that the good memories of his legacy will be a comfort to you while you grieve this loss. Know that I'm keeping you in my thoughts and prayers, as I am sure the whole Calvary Baptist Church family are also. Please know that he will be sorely missed.

Much love to you and your family.
