"I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise." Luke 22:43
Cal died peacefully about noon on Friday, October 26. He was at home with Annie, Titus, Tim, Jordan, and Brendan, as well as his daughter-in-law Grace and grandson Ezra at his bedside. We can imagine Cal's great joy at arriving in his heavenly home and meeting the King he has served so faithfully all his days. We cannot yet imagine our life without him, but we can find comfort in the fact that he is in paradise now.
We will provide information about a celebration of Cal's life as soon as our plans are more developed. In the meantime, we appreciate your prayers and your many expressions of love and support.

I've been praying for two things for you and Cal - for the Wisdom to know God's will, and Strength to be able to do that. While I'm sad about Cal's passing, I am also thankful for his peacefulness at this time, and for the impact he had in my life. I would not be where I am today if Cal had not challenged and encouraged me as a freshman at Seattle Pacific, 40 years ago.
ReplyDeleteAnnie--We love you and your family. You and Cal touched so many lives over the years--I was one of those. Peace be with you as you start this new chapter in your life. I wish I could join you as you celebrate his life on the 14th.
