To the Banks Family. I was very sorry to hear of the passing of Calvin (Boo). My prayers and thoughts are with you. I saw him last labor day and he was talking of retirement and making me laugh as always. He will be sorely missed by all who knew and loved him. We loved him but God loved him best. Take care and God Bless.

Banks Family,
I knew Calvin from when he lived in Briarfield Manor. He was my mom's neighbor who always looked out for her. He was also a friend of my late sister Kathy Mitchell and my brother Vernell.
I always remember Calvin having a smile on his face and having something sassy/funny to say.
He will certainly be missed. I hope and pray that your memories over time will help ease the pain of your loss.
Be encouraged and blessed.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
