Dear Jean and Family,

I just learned of Michael’s passing and was so sorry we didn’t know sooner.  The Blair family in Portland Oregon are cousins of Michael and Michelle. 

I remember coming to visit in Memphis a couple of times. I’ll never forget when Diane took me to see Graceland and Elvis signed an autograph for me, I still have it to this day. 

I was sorry we didn’t get to see each other very often, especially after Uncle Rolly and Aunt Mary Call passed away. 

My sincere condolences to Jean, their children and Michelle.

Duck was a tremendous friend and was so kind to everyone he met. It was always great to see him walk in the front door at Wayne's with his sample box and brief case. I know he loved us as a company and as individuals. As several people have commented, he really knew his food. It was always a pleasure to go to lunch with him and just relax while talking about sports and our families. He was so thoughtful to ask about my family and what all was going on with them. I considered him a close friend and I will always be grateful for the relationship we had. I will miss him so much.  May God bless all of the family and give them the peace and comfort that surpasses all understanding. Many prayers be with you all.

Words cannot express how deeply sorry I am for the recent passing of Mike who was a dear friend to me.  Your family has constantly been in my thoughts and prayers over the past few weeks and I wanted to write to you and share with you a few of the fond memories I had with Mike.  I considered him one of my closest work buddies when I worked at Trend Sales.  He taught me so much about calling on customers when Joe first asked me to take that on as part of my role at Trend.  I will never forget the first time I went around with him on sales calls. It was easy to see that he was loved by all of his customers and why he was so great at what he did.  He was so kind to talk me through the process of what it looked like to sell candy, especially candy that wasn’t easy to sell sometimes :) However,  my favorite “skill” I learned from Mike was how to find great food while making sales calls. If there was one thing he and I had in common, it was food! We both loved diet coke, desserts, hamburgers, and of course pizza! He was also notorious for introducing me to the very best appetizers at any restaurant.  
	On a personal level, Mike was one of the most caring people I have ever known.  He was always asking me about my family, my husband, life in Nashville, and was so good about checking in even when I no longer worked for Trend.  He was a man that truly knew how to care for others and make them feel so loved and appreciated.   I am so thankful to have learned so much from Mike and will always cherish our time we spent together. 

Jean, I was so sorry to hear about Mike and wanted you to know that I’m praying for you and your family - You and Mike were one of many great love stories from REHS - he was such a great guy - praying that the Father of Compassion and the God of all Comfort pours over all of you during this difficult time.  (2nd Cor 1:3)

No matter what kind of day I was having, it was always better when Duck came by to see me. Since he passed a few days ago, I suddenly realize how many times a day I usually thought about Duck.  When I see an add on TV about any restaurant, I think 'Duck and I gotta check that out'. When I see a good game, I couldn't wait to hear Duck's opinion. I walk through the warehouse and think 'I need to call Duck and see if........' I could go on, but no doubt you guys are dealing with the same feelings a hundred times over.  I will pray to the Good Lord for comfort for you. I know for a fact that the great memories you have will slowly overtake the grief. Duck would want that. May God comfort and bless. Love, Gary Wilkes

Mike was a true friend and a wonderful colleague with which I was very fortunate and honored to have had the opportunity to work closely with for 14 years.  His warm laugh and dynamic personality  were contagious and Mike was loved by all.  

My prayers and sympathy are with the Call family, and may God bless Mike and his family.

I had the pleasure of working with Mike when he was with Trend Sales.  He was a caring and great friend.  I will miss him so much!  He always made work fun whether a business trip or around the office.  
He was like a  big brother, always looking out for his friends.  He was truly one of a kind.

I never had the honor of meeting Mike Call but I feel I know him by hearing Judd and Ashlee speak of him. My thoughts and prayers are with his family  as they mourn the loss of their loved one. 

So sorry to hear of Mike's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

Mike was a good friend that started when I started working with the Trend group. He loved his family and spoke of them often. He was a true professional, and a great friend. He will be missed.

Sorry to hear about Mike. He was a good friend and will be missed greatly. 

So Sorry to hear about Mike.  

He was a great friend and business partner he will be missed.  

He was always the life of the event!!
