Margie and family, my heart goes out to you all in this time of great sadness. Cal was my friend and a fellow collector and we enjoyed hours of looking and talking about each others collections. I will miss his camaraderie. It should comfort you in knowing he is no longer in pain and he is at rest by the side of the Lord. Godspeed my friend and we shall meet again.
