Calvin kept busy working for farmers in the area and working in his wood shop.  Calvin and Donnah enjoyed spending their winters in Mexico, and looked forward to when their family would come visit them there.  Calvin loved to ride his golf cart with his dog, Lexi, and visit all his friends in both Paamul and Thomson Lake.   Calvin was a member the Lions Club in Gravelbourg.
