Calvin Behm 1999-2023

On February 18, 2023, the world tragically lost Pacific Alumni Calvin Behm. Calvin had just graduated from Pacific this past fall and had been pursuing a job with Toyota. 

During his time at Pacific, Calvin was a communications major and a huge part of the Men’s Water Polo Team. His contribution in the 2022 season aided the team in securing a Golden Coast Conference Championship Win and a trip all the way to the Semi-Final of the NCAA tournament. Calvin’s presence was felt around campus, always walking to class with a big smile on his face. 

One of his many friends, Madelene Ennis, 24’ (English)  shared a few words about what Calvin meant to her, “Calvin Behm to me was more than a waterpolo player. When I think of Calvin I can hear his laugh and I can see his smile. That smile could light up a room, and whenever I was having a rough day he would always cheer me up and make me feel special.” 

“He cared so much about all the people around him. The love he had for his teammates was so strong. The commitment and loyalty he had for his team always inspired me, and watching them all interact with each other it was clear that they were his brothers. I am so grateful for the time I had with him. He was my first love and he will hold a special place in my heart forever. Love you Cal.”

For anyone who had the privilege of knowing Calvin, you know he was filled with love for everyone around him. So, may his memory live on for his family and friends back in Pennsylvania and here in Stockton. Fly high buddy.
