My heart breaks when my beloved sisters lose a child and Cal was gone much too young. I loved his sense of humor and his smile. He was courageous and can stand up for himself. He was a good speaker. He will be missed.

I grew up with Calvin when I lived around the area. We would play hockey, ride our bikes, play soccer and just have fun. He was a good guy and almost like a big brother at times.
I’m sad to hear about his untimely passing and remember last seeing him at my mom’s house. He came to say hi and see if I was still around.
All the best to his family. My condolences during this difficult time.
