Arturo Calvo, Born on July 14, 1914 passed away at the age of 103, in Florida on April 12. His two Sons, Julio and Miguel along with his Grandson Miguel Jr were there for him, prior to his death. In the 70’s Arturo migrated to the United States from Peru. He worked for several years until he retired. Arturo was outspoken, loving and at many times very funny. Although his English was not very good, He would always find a way to get his point across. At one of our birthday party he once shouted “Happy New years!” we all laughed but knew exactly what he meant. So” Happy New year it was! If you were around the Brentwood or Bay Shore area you would see him walking around town and taking the bus to the mall or to meet friends for coffee. During the time that his wife Olga Calvo was sick , He would go the hospital to be at her side. He was there all day everyday until she passed away, many weeks later. The Nurses got to know him and were amazed at his committed to his wife. He would tell you stories from his long life and he was always ready to eat at dinner time. We were lucky to have him in our lives and we will miss his smile.
