I am personally grateful and Thankful that the Lord took Mr. Calvin in peace. I've always wanted to be in the funeral business, but the Lord took Ms. Tanya Banks from me when she started to teach me the Organ at Greater New Fellowship Missionary Baptist church. People may think you are weird by going into the business but, Think, who's going to take care of your wishes after God calls you on home. May your spirit be remembered forever, and thanks Mr. Calvin. Love you Bridgette!
