In addition to his career and business ventures, he found time to take up flying as a hobby, owned several air planes, and maintained his private airstrip on the family farm near the Center community. God blessed Calvin and Vertie's union with three chil dren: Jeff (Isabel of Michigan), deceased 1983, Steve (Ra chel) of Mocksville, and Marjolene (Whaid) of Denver. Motivated by Jeff's death to minister to bereaved parents, Calvin and Vertie became local leaders of The Compas sionate Friends, and eventually served on the TCF National Board. He received numerous honors and awards through out the years for community service, including the N.C. Govemor's Award, the Jefferson Award (WBTV), the E.C.

In his later years, Calvin earned advanced credentials from the American Association of Christian Counselors in order to be better equipped in his efforts to assist hurt ing people, and published a book, "Survival Tools for the Christian Journey," as a resource for providing hope and encouragement. Most important, he was a dedicated Christian who loved the Lord, and served as a lay leader for many years. He was raised and served in the Church of God Body of Christ (as a preacher's kid), was a leader in the Church of God (Sev enth Day) for more than three decades, and was blessed by the fellowship of the Statesville Seventh Day Adventist Church during his final years. He was driven in his pur suit of excellence and had a passionate desire to help those around him get it right regarding life, faith in God, and service to others. His life of integrity and mfluence can be summarized by this single Bible verse: "It is better to be respected than to be rich; a good name is better than money in the bank" (Proverts 22:1, paraphrased).
