    My condolences and sympathy to the children and sisters and family of Calvin Inman. My remembrance of him in the early years of our lives is that he was a very good friend to me and my brother Bob Mitchell. I remember he was a good basketball player for the Smithville High School. I know that your memories of him will sustain you as a good father, grandfather, and brother in the future. God bless you all.

    Cousins, We were sorry to hear of your dad's death, but nice to hear that he did not seem to suffer. I appreciate that he was kind to me (dot). Velda did not tell us, the boys (Tony, Terry & Tracy) until today. I would have appreciated having the opportunity to come to the funeral and be there with you. Our thoughts & prayers are with you, Tony & Dot
