In this Legacy interview, South Dakota Hall of Fame Board Member Dave Rozenboom sits down with Prudy Calvin, wife of John Calvin, and Jim Roby to discuss the life and legacy of 2019 Inductee, John Calvin.
John Calvin was a hard-charging, relentless business executive, advisor to four South Dakota governors, philanthropist, and loyal friend. After a 22 year career in the cement lime division in Sioux City Iowa, Gov. George Mickelson convinced Calvin to move his company to Watertown by offering him the state’s first “REDI” loan in 1987. That started a relationship between John and the highest levels of South Dakota’s government as he became a key business advisor to governors, U.S. Senators, and U.S. Representatives.
John’s wife, Prudy, and colleague Jim Roby remember the drive John Calvin had to make sure those around him were thriving. Former Gov. once stated, "John is a man with a generous heart, a mind for business, and a willingness to serve,” Daugaard said. “He has helped many businesses find their home in South Dakota, and many students find success in our state."
