I too remember Calvin from Boy Scouts (Troop 767 I think). We used to have Scout meetings at his house on the South Side. His father was heavily involved in our scouting events. We all had nick names back then. Calvin was nick named "Calvin Piffle". Couldn't find a nicer or kinder person. He'll be sorely missed.
