    Our. LCCI class of 1959 still has many fond memories of Mr Calvert. He was a great, dedicated science teacher for many years. We have circulated his obituary notice to many of our classmates. RIP

    I remember Mr. Calvert teaching our grade 13 chemistry class at London Central in 1959. We knew him to be an outstanding teacher who kept us motivated. Condolences to his family.

    I attended high school with Peter, and visited the Calvert home many times. I always felt very welcome there by both Betty and Harold.

    Condolences to Mr. Calvert’s family. Mr. Calvert taught Chemistry at Laurier High School. He was a great teacher who inspired many of us. Later, I remember meeting him as a volunteer at Victoria Hospital always with a smile on his face.
