Calvin C. Helzerman, 95, of Barryton, Michigan passed away peacefully at his home on October 27, 2020. Born on a snowy morning, May 24, 1925, in Willis, Michigan to parents Anna Catherine (Hodgkin) and Arthur J. Helzerman, he is survived by his wife, Nancy Jo (Anderson) of sixty-four years, daughters, Dawn Fiser (Jack Brugger), Karen Cobb (Martin), son Dale Helzerman, grandchildren Katie Mickevicius, Sara Pieske (Nick), Jenni Moro (Ryan), Emily Cobb, great granddaughter, Alayna Pieske and brothers John Helzerman, Lynwood (Jean) Helzerman, George (Sandra) Helzerman, brother-in-law Gerald Gray. In addition to his parents he was preceded in death by siblings Arthur (Josephine) Helzerman, Anna Gray, Margaret (David) Stralnic, and sister-in-law Maryann Helzerman. He was a man of few words, a huge heart, and a strong work ethic, who demonstrated his love by his actions and generosity. After retiring from Ypsilanti State Hospital in 1983, he was able to devote his time to things he enjoyed most, traveling with his wife and grandchildren in their motorhome, snowmobiling, watching Tiger baseball, fishing, gardening, and woodworking. He was proud to be the leading hitter in the Southern Michigan baseball league in the early 1950s. Cal found joy in stopping by to share a basket of produce, a bucket of fish, or to give you a hammer that he had fixed by replacing the handle. A celebration of life will be planned for a future date. The family is being cared for by Daggett-Gilbert Funeral Homes of Mecosta County.
