I met Calvin about 13 years ago. He always wondered how I’m doing, and asked me many times. He was always kind to me. He was blessed with a great family. I admire his collection of toy buses and things from LANTA. I wish I got to know him better. My condolences

Hi Sue. I don’t know if you remember me. Cal and I were good friends. While he drove for Lanta I drove for Trans-Bridge Lines and I was the one who drove the limo on your wedding day. I’m really sorry for your lose. It hit me hard when I found out. I know we got out of touch after a while but I never forgot about him. I pray God will comfort you during this difficult time. God bless you and your family.

So sorry to hear of the loss of Calvin, he always brought smiles to the New Approach family, he always made me laugh when I would measure him for his vest, he was so tall it was hard for me to reach to measure his chest. Prayers to you and the family.
