Cal was always ready to flash a warm and inviting smile, had a knack for making people feel at ease with engaging conversation wrapped with humor and joy.  He loved his grandchildren on whom he doted endlessly and attended every event that celebrated a birthday, sporting event, or achievement that honored them.

Cal instilled the love for the magic of Christmas, travel, great music, pasta and family time into all the family who loves him so much.  He will be dearly missed by his shih tzu companion Hippocrates Lambchop.
