Uncle Calvin was the real deal. Sadly they dont make them like him anymore. A man of few words but when he spoke you listened because it was something you wanted to remember or a cute joke. In 1971 he and Aunt Ninny drove from Twin to Seattle on their vacation to build me my own bedroom out of an unfinished furnace room. I remember he was so sweet never complaining and happy to do it. I wrote him a thank you note sometime later. The last time I saw him in October he went and got his Bible and pulled out that old worn out note. That was my Uncle Calvin. He will never be replaced. Thank you Lord that you put him in my life. I am so blessed.
