Calvin Cubie
Calvin Cubie was born to Elizabeth Cubie in Kansas City, Missouri. He had brothers Bobbie, Dwayne, Harvey and Michael and sisters, Phyllis, Levetta, Gayle, Angela and Angie Cubie. When he was only 18 and was at a party near his home, Calvin was shot and killed. He was well-liked and a star on his high school basketball and football teams. A week later, when he was buried at a funeral attended by about 350 people, no one had been identified as his murderer. See Friends attend services for youth. Calvin would have graduated from high school only two months after he was killed. On March 27, Lewis W. Perkins, 28, was arrested and charged with the murder of Calvin Cubie. He was held on a $25,000 bond. Lewis had attended a party given by his sister - the same party that Calvin attended. According to court records, both Calvin and Lewis had guns and Lewis shot Calvin in the back of head, killing him. Lewis later plead guilty to involuntary manslaughter and was sentenced to four years. He said that people "pushed him onto the porch of his house" and that "men in front of the house were firing, and he panicked and fired a shot into the crowd. The shot struck and killed Mr. Cubie".

I'm a Founder of AncientFaces and support the community answering questions & helping members make connections to the past (thus my official title of Founder & Content and Community Support ). For me, it's been a labor of love for over 20 years. I truly believe with all of my heart that everyone should be remembered for generations to come. I am 2nd generation San Jose and have seen a lot of changes in the area while growing up. We used to be known as the "Valley of Heart's Delight" (because the Valley was covered with orchards and there were many canneries to process the food grown here, which shipped all over the US) - now we have adopted the nickname "Capital of Silicon Valley" and Apple, Ebay, Adobe, Netflix, Facebook, and many more tech companies are within a few miles of my current home in San Jose (including AncientFaces). From a small town of 25,000, we have grown to 1 million plus. And when you add in all of the communities surrounding us (for instance, Saratoga, where I attended high school, living a block from our previous Mayor), we are truly one of the big cities in the US. I am so very proud of my hometown. For more information see Kathy - Founder & Content and Community Director
My family began AncientFaces because we believe that unique photos and stories that show who people are/were should be shared with the world.
