Add Your Remembrance

Oh my goodness…I’m so sorry to hear about your dad! What a loss for all of you and the Wyoming neighborhood! I have memories far too numerous to share here about growing up in that neighborhood and all the great ways your dad contributed. Of course his garden was always so bountiful and he was so willing to share. Nothing like your dad’s cucumbers!! But I remember vividly the great firework displays he would put on for all of us. What a blast! I hope you are all doing well and I look forward to seeing you on Thursday. God bless all of you and I hope you find peace! Alison

We are reminded of Cal every day, through the superior remodeling he has done in our home over the last 40 years. And no matter how busy he was, he always had time to chat over a cup of coffee. We will miss him.
