Would like to thank you and everyone on here for the kind words that was said about my brother Steve Calvert. He loved Zihua so much. I have never been able to come to Z, and was actually going to come in Feb of 2021 but now of course its not possible. Music, family and friends was his life and he enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you again. Linda Sampson, sister

I'm sure Steve would've loved it if you came to see the place he loved so much, Linda. His friends here would be happy to show you around.

P.S. Please see his photo in my original post. I retouched it a bit and fixed a problem that was causing it not to show up. Please feel free to copy and save it to your computer.

I am so sorry to hear of Steve's passing. We have been on the road and offline for several days and just heard of it. Our sympathies to the family and friends, he was a standup guy for sure.

So sorry to hear - remembered him from Rossy's and I guess it is always surprising to
hear that someone you only recently seen in December is gone.

Very congenial guy. Will always associate big nights at Pacalo´s, and Steve´s closing out a set with "six days on the road, and we´re gonna make it home tonight."
He will be missed. QEPD.

Our sincere condolences to Steve’s family. Like so many others, we enjoyed many years listening to him perform at a number of venues. A great performer and a very nice person. Rossys won’t be the same. RIP Steve.

Steve had been a friend for some 20 years going back to Paccolo's days. He was a genuine person that will be missed, as well as his music. He succumbed to complications from pneumonia as announced by his doctor. May he rest his peace. My most sincere condolences to all his family and friends. May he rest in peace.

Yes, Dave. He had been in the news. The mayor affirmed yesterday that Steve tested negative for Covid-19.

Steve had just turned 70 on St. Patrick's Day. We're now regretting missing that celebration at Rossy's.

Farewell to one of our first gringo friends in Zihua. Steve and Ralph, "Los Dos Fabulosos" were a fixture for years at Paccolo's, and Steve and Friends for the past few years at Rossy's. Hard to find a nicer guy. Our sympathies to his family and legions of friends.

Steve Calvert, Zihuatanejo resident and well known musician, passed away this morning from pneumonia at the Hospital General of Zihuatanejo. He was 70 years old. Much strength and love to his family and friends. QEPD
