Wasn’t Calvin’s father an excommunicated thief?

The latter (Calvins father)died in 1531, under excommunication from the chapter for not sending in his accounts. The old man's illness, not his lack of honesty, was, we are told, the cause.
Catholic encyclopedia

BTW it was to a thief that Jesus promised heaven ....
