Tamara, I am so sorry for the loss of Calvin to you and to your children.
OMG, I just saw this. I am so, so sorry. I have always enjoyed reading Tamara’s posts. My heart goes out to her and her family. Godspeed to Calvin.
Tamara, my heart breaks for you. If you and the kids need to get away from everything please let me know.
Tamara, I am so very sorry for your loss. Condolences to you and the entire family. :sadsmile:
I’m so sorry!
I am so very sorry!! If you need someone to come down and help out with something one day, let me know. I’m a few hours away in Central KY. If you need to get away for a few days, come on up.
Tamara, I am so terribly sorry for the loss that you and your family have experienced. I pray that you are granted with the strength and courage to get through this absolutely terrible tragedy. I can’t imagine that the pain ever passes, but I hope that, in time, it dims and the love you two shared will sustain you.
My deepest and sincerest condolences to Tamara and her family. You are in my thoughts.
Tamara, my deepest condolences to you and your family. Your advice and your advice through him, and his willingness to help my dad (even though he never called) when he knew nothing about making hay was very appreciated. My prayers are with you and your family.
Tamara, there are no words … I am just so terribly, terribly sorry. Know that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.
This is very tragic news. Tamara always spoke so admiringly of her husband.
I am so sorry. Life doesn’t seem fair or right sometimes.
God Bless and my thoughts and prayers will include you and your family, I am so sorry for you.
i’m stunned. speechless. my thoughts are with you tamara and with your family.
Tamara,
I’m in shock, too. Calvin was so caring, kind and thoughtful when I “met” him over the phone. He explained to me how the hay delivery systems and transportation worked. He explained why it would be too expensive for me to buy hay from you and suggested a dealer closer to me. He gave away a sale because he felt it wasn’t fair to me. What an honorable man. I wanted to meet both of you after that experience. I have so much respect for you.
I hope that the tv station will give you a copy of the video of Calvin talking about farming. He was happy talking about what he loved.
(((((hugs)))))

I am so, so sorry
More hugs and prayers from VA - you and your family will be in our thoughts. So very sorry this happened to you and your family.
Tamara
Hugs and thoughts go out to you from New York.
Remember, you only have to look at your children to know that he still lives on.
God bless.

So sad. Tamera, I woke up worrying about you today. I hope somehow peace comes into your life. Just wish there was something we all could do to make things better. So sorry for your loss.
I’m not one to get attached to online personalities but Tamara, you have been utterly consistent in sharing your knowledge in good candor, and the love and admiration you held for your family always seemed to come through between the lines. So when I read this my heart truly did sink for you.
And then I read the link.
My dear Tamara oh how that grieves me. I have survived a homicide attempt. The world is never quite the same once you’ve witnessed this side of humanity, but you are incapable of explaining why this is so…
I can’t imagine I am of any use in helping ease the pain but I wanted to reach out as this is a very unique set of circumstances that few can understand. I just wrapped up my court case in December, 3.5 very, very long years later. This was a challenge. A huge drawn-out challenge to survive with sanity intact. Please, if my experience can be of any help to you, if I can answer any questions when you get to that point, let me know. My asshole got 50 years, only because I still walk this earth. May this one get put away for life.
So very sorry for you, Tamara, and your children and family.
Tamara,
As everyone has said, I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved Calvin. The joy and love you two shared rang out every time you posted about him. Find some peace in the fact that if we imaginary friends on the internet could feel that love, Calvin must have been enveloped in it daily as he went about his business. Find comfort as you look at your children who will continue to remind you of Calvin’s most endearing and probably most annoying habits for the rest of your life. You are lucky to have them and they are lucky to have you. Together you will get through this and someday find the joy again.
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you and all you loved your husband. I only wish there was something more we could do.
Tamara,
be as strong as you can; keep his memory alive for you and your children as best as you can; gain back as much enjoyment from life as you can; and remember, you will be with him again…
so sorry.
