“To the Family of Calvin Holdren, My name is Lori and I work for Food for the Hungry where Calvin and Renee have been Sponsors. I had the privilege of speaking to Calvin a couple of weeks ago. He was such a delight and an inspiration to me. I will always remember our call as we had such a meaningful conversation in that short period of time. He said what he was going through was very difficult, but that God is still good. My sincere condolences to his family and friends.”
