Rudolph A. Calvisi
Feb. 13, 1933 — May 20, 2011

Rudolph “Rudy” Calvisi passed away May 20, at age 78. He was a devoted husband, father and grandfather. He will be missed by all who knew him.

Rudy served in the U.S. Navy in communications and retired after 20 years. He then completed another 20 years with Xerox Corp., before retiring for good. He lived in San Diego until he relocated to Lake Havasu to be near family. He loved family get-togethers and bowling. Bowling was his favorite pastime.

He married his beloved wife, Joyce, Sept. 13, 1957. They shared 51 wonderful years before her passing in 2009.

Rudy was preceded in death by his wife, Joyce; son, Tony; and brother, Mario. He is survived by daughters, Linda (Ryan) Eckhardt, Lisa (Terry) Anders; and son, Mike Calvisi, of Lake Havasu City; grandchildren, Trish and Trina Hendrickson, Josh Anders, Anna, Elizabeth and Shelby Eckhardt.

Rudy is finally walking hand-in-hand again in heaven with his beloved wife, Joyce. Anyone who knew the two of them knew that Rudy was completely lost without Joyce.

Graveside services will be at 10 a.m. Saturday at Lake Havasu Memorial Gardens. Deacon Tom Coe will offer words of comfort. Military honors provided by VFW Post 9401, and American Legion Post 81 will follow.

Thoughts and condolences can be submitted to the family at www.lietz-frazefuneralhome.com.

Arrangements were placed under the care of Lietz-Fraze Funeral Home & Crematory.
