He entered the US Coast Guard and proudly served his country during World War II. Upon being honorably discharged from the military, he went on to work at his father's butcher shop in San Francisco's Mission district and ultimately became the owner and successfully ran the business. After 42 years in the meat industry he retired from Petrini's Market. Cal was an avid 49er and Giant's fan. He enjoyed working in his garden and analyzing the stock market. Calvin will be forever remembered by his family for his "GP smile", his huge handshakes and for his reserved, caring and loving personality. He will always be loved and held close in our hearts. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Wednesday at 10:00 am at St. Stephen Church, 451 Eucalyptus Dr., San Francisco followed by internment at Holy Cross Cemetery, Colma.
