Calvin Ross TerHaar

Calvin Ross TerHaar, age 66, went to be with his Lord and Savior on Monday, July 5, 2021. God so lovingly walked with him during his long health journey with mulitple myeloma. Cal was preceded in death by his father, Russell TerHaar and nephew, Tim TerHaar.

God blessed him greatly with Suanne, his wife of 38 years; three children and their spouses Bill (Lisa Knot), Brian (Emily Rietberg), and Laura (Jason) King; grandchildren Joel Calvin King, Anna Grace King, Kyle Robert King, Russell Wayne TerHaar, Toby Jacob King, Henry Brian TerHaar, Alivia Rae TerHaar, Leah Faith King, and one new TerHaar baby due very soon. They will miss him very much. He will also be remembered by his dear mother, Beatrice TerHaar; siblings Mary (Jim) Koster, Mark (Cheryl) TerHaar, and Randy (Lisa) TerHaar; as well as several nieces, nephews, and friends.

Cal strived to live out the words of Jesus to love the Lord his God with all his heart, soul, mind, and strength, and his neighbor as himself. He always displayed a deep love for his family and friends and enjoyed sharing his faith and the good news of salvation to all he came to know. He served as a deacon, elder, and Sunday school teacher in each of the churches he and his family attended. He enjoyed being active in various recreational activities, especially the men's cycling group he participated in with his good friends. Cal graduated from Davenport College and worked over the years in warehouse and distribution supervisorial roles at local companies.

Visitation with friends and relatives will take place from 3-7 p.m. Thursday, July 8, 2021 at Fellowship Reformed Church, 6610 36th Street, Hudsonville, MI 49426. A Celebration of Cal’s Life will take place 11 a.m. Friday, July 9, 2021, with Pastor Shawn Hulst and Tom Broughton officiating.
