Yesterday was your birthday and I cried. I am glad you are never going to be in pain again but I miss you. Everyday I think of you. I see you in my dreams and cherish sweet memories of our life together. What we shared was 'ours' and you and I understood nothing would change what our hearts I'm glad you loved again and know she loved you so much. Nothing I say is meant to take away from her. You were just the best, most wonderful love I've ever known. I'm proud to have been your wife and to have had you as my husband. I'll love you always and longer than forever! I know you heard me wishing you the happiest birthday heaven ever had, didn't you, my love?

Your life on this earth was too short for us that were left here to grieve. There's an empty spot in our hearts. Your hugs and "I love you" will truly be missed by all. I have so many memories. I thank you for your kindness and support when I needed it. I hope that I was comforting to you during these last couple of years. I know you didn't want to leave us and we didn't want you to but this world is just a stopping place. I hope you and John are doing a little fishing now. I don't know exactly how Heaven is but I'd like to think you're up there now watching over us. So long Calvin, until we meet again. Love you

The happiest years of my life were spent with Calvin. He was truly the love of my life. When we met one of the first things I learned from him was that he loved his family. I love his family, too. I thank God for the 10 years he & I shared. My prayers are with you all. Calvin gave us all the most wonderful memories to cherish until we are with him again in Heaven. For me he will always be just as he was when I last saw him because that's how he wanted me to remember him. (I'll see you in my dreams until I get to Heaven.) Pj

Calvin, I will miss you so much. I can't stand the fact that I won't see you smiling face. I wish everything could of had a different ending.You had the most kind heart and I always couldn't wait until I seen you again. I'm glad you are in heaven with papa and the rest of your aunts, uncles and friends, but I guess I'm just selfish and I want you here with me. Me and Amy will look over mema and daddy so don't worry about them. I love you and I will see you again

My husband Mark & I went through High school with Calvin and ran around together for years. Mark passed away 4 years ago and Calvin was at his funeral in Tulsa and it was a comfort to see him. I regret I was unable to come to his Service as I live in Little Rock, but I am so sorry for your loss. Calvin was always a sweet, kind and funny guy and I have nothing but fun, pleasant memories of the teenage/young adult period in our lives. He will be Missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you all, Kris Newell
