Condolence From: Jessica Vander Ploeg
Condolence: Cheryl and Family, Cal was a dear friend of my dad, Jim Vander Ploeg. My sister and I have such wonderful memories from our childhood of going to Cal’s house on the lake. He was such a good and generous person. We are so very sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.
