So sorry to hear of your loss, I hope that your family finds comfort in the loving memories shared with Calvin. I hope you can find comfort in the loving hope of Acts 24:15 and Psalms 37:10,11 which reminds us of the resurrection to earthly paradise conditions. May Jehovah God and his son Jesus Christ give your family comfort during this sad time.

I would like to offer my deepest condolences to the Huizinga family. Losing a loved one is never easy. However, the Bible offers us a wonderful hope in that we will see these dear ones again soon (John 5:28,29). May the God of all comfort strengthen you during this difficult time.
