He was a lover of cars from the first and over his life he worked as a mechanic, a buyer and reseller of his beloved Mustangs and a model builder of plastic cars.
He began his work life early as a paperboy for the Denison Herald from the age of twelve. As an adult, he was a salesman for Babcock Stores. However his true love was in writing. He wrote many historical stories for the Denison Herald and automobile articles for such magazines as Street Rodder, Super Ford, Rod and Custom, and Street Rod Pickups. Nationally, he was published over 100 times.
He is survived by his wife of almost 32 years, Debbie Mauldin; son Tim Mauldin and daughter-in-law Marina Mauldin.
He was a gentleman and a gentle man, kind hearted, honorable, humorous, and loyal. He will be greatly missed by family, friends , and his loyal readers. Calvin was a man of faith and he’s at rest, safe now, at home with the Lord in heaven. His legacy will live on though the lives he has touched. The family will be hosting a Celebration of Life Thursday, July 19th, from 2 P.M. to 4 P.M. at Unity Baptist Church. Fond memories and expressions of sympathy may be shared at www.bratcherfuneralhome.com for the Mauldin family.
