Calvin Holman (1931-2007)
Posted by Sonoran Alliance under Crime and Punishment , Human Condition , Memorial[3] Comments
Former State Legislator Cal Holman was killed yesterday in a horrific car crash. He was 76.
The crash involved two men who were likely racing at speeds exceeding 70 mph. Both men were arrested and have been charged with 2nd degree murder.
Cal was still very active in Republican party politics particularly in North Phoenix and Scottsdale. He served in the Arizona Legislature from 1975-1985.
On behalf of the writers of Sonoran Alliance, I’d like to express our deepest prayers and condolences to his family. He will be missed.

Cal was the epitome of a dedicated grass-roots party activist.
The County GOP should honor his memory with an annual award to a dedicated volunteer who exemplifies his spirit of service.
Rest in Peace, Cal.

I never had the good fortune of making his acquaintance. I wish I had. It is for people like Cal and his family that http://www.yourclubs.net is working so hard to put a anti street racing program in place.
Our Prayers go out to his Family.
May he rest in peace,
Joe
