My Sweet brother Billy Calvin, Remembering back... We always talked about how great our childhood was. We said we were probably poor as crap, But at that time we surely didn't know it. We had a home full of love, If we did without anything it wasn't much. Although Mom and Dad wasn't together they made sure we were loved taken care of.
I have so many great memories growing up with you. I'm gonna miss our long late night phone calls talking about our families and remembering our childhood.
How we enjoyed growing-up living next door to Mamaw Ruby it allowed us to be able to see our cousins every weekend which was a big part of our childhood that we loved. Also the neighborhood kids all the good times we had playing together.
Because our dad worked downtown Dayton and we lived within walking distance we were allowed to go downtown anytime we wanted to. Downtown was like our playground, We had so much fun going to the movies at the Loew's theater, Roller skating at Skateland skating rink in the mid to late 1960's. Running around all the stores, having ice cream sundaes at McCrorys, Eating at White Tower, and Simple Simon's restaurants. I remember we would have races to the 8th floor at Rike's department store... one of us would take the escalator and the other the elevator. haha
Looking back the way we played around in those stores I'm amazed we didn't get into any trouble. It was so much fun!!
You were an awesome brother and a awesome Uncle both of my children and 4 of my granddaughter's loved you so much,
We are gonna miss you terribly bad , Our family will never be the same without you.
We will love you always and forever, Your loving sister, Jona Grace
