Cal and I spent many days practicing archery together, out in his yard, and many miles travelling to tournaments all over the west. We first met at the UofU archery classes and shot with their team. Cal was always there for me when I was a young and brash college age kid. He taught me a lot about life and living for which I am very grateful. We were very close in shooting skill and pushed each other to get better for several years. He was always the one with the van to take us places and he never once asked me for gas money. He picked me up and dropped me off so many times I can hardly imagine counting them all. We traveled thousands of miles together to dozens of tournaments both local and to several other states. We also shot the winter target leagues at UTE archery for several years. During all those miles I don't remember a single time that he let his wheel chair be a handicap for him, he was always right there, ready, and able to complete with the very best of the competition. I can hardly imagine how different my youth would have been without him. This photo in the obituary with his half bald head, mustache and smile is perfect. This is the Calvin that I remember, a very good friend. ...Allen Wald
