Mr. Calvin "Feda" Mayes

July 23, 1974 - February 7, 2020

Calvin Lee Mayes was born July 23, 1974, the son of Joyce E. Walker and Calvin McDowell. He passed away on February 7, 2020. "Feda," as he was affectionately known, had many passions in his life. He had a beautiful smile that would brighten up anyone’s day. If you knew him, you had to love him. Calvin was educated in the Fayette County Public School System. During his high school years, he attended Bryan Station High School where he played baseball for the Mighty Defenders. He was the life of any party because he loved to dance the night away. His bowling skills were phenomenal, which was proven by his scores in the many leagues he belonged to. He was a master when he had a deck of cards in his hands. To hear him talk trash, slam down the winning Ace and then beat everyone hands down was a true art form that belonged only to him. To sit across from him at the card table, you’d be quick to realize that regardless of the game you were playing, be it blackjack, spades or poker, your card playing was going to be short lived! Calvin was preceded in death by his grandparents, Alexander and Lina Mayes, William McDowell and Willie Mae Edwards McDowell. Besides his parents, he will be greatly missed by seven children, Tori Chenault, Dariona Walker, Kyra Mayes, Taleigha Mayes, Taven Mayes, Kamari Mayes, and Keon Mayes; the mother of five of his children, Tracy Napier; a grandson, Carter Daniel; three sisters, Mechelle (Billy Ray) Edmonds, Kimberly Mayes and Tamika Leavell; three brothers, Johnathon Wilson, Darius Walker and DeQuey Walker; five nieces, Brianna Webb, Damanasty Bell, Damaria Bell, Dametria Mayes and DamarJanae Mayes; a nephew, Antonio Webb, Jr.; and a host of aunts, uncles, cousins and many friends including Stephanie “TiTi” Ford and Devin Sanford.
