Susie and all the family. Deepest condolences to the family. Just found out. Mr Calvin was a great man and a great bus driver. As he was mine when I was a child. He could always make you laugh. Bet he and a lot of his ole friends are going hunting in heaven.
I'm so sorry to read of Mr. Calvin's passing. Had I seen this sooner, I would have been with you all last night. He was such a good man! My mother was Orinne Fielder Glover and my grandparents were John and Daisy Fielder. My Granny sure did love those Robertson children! I heard many stories of them living as neighbors. And I always enjoyed my visits with him. May God bless and keep you all during this difficult time.
Our prayers go out to you and your family at this sad time. He has touched a lot of people in his life and will be missed.

To the Robertson Family: I was sadden to hear of Mr. Calvin's passing. I remember him so well coming to my Daddy's (Hoot Thorn) shop, He was always funny, and Dad & him was always going on with other. It would get quite hilarious at times, when Otis Gotcher was in there too! Mr. Calvin was always in a hurry to get back to the house to do more work, said "I'm burning daylight, gotta go!"
My deepest sympathy for all of you and may God give you peace and comfort.
