Edd McCall Jr, age 69, tragically passed away on March 22, 2022. Edd was born in 1953 on the 3rd of March and grew up in Mobile, Alabama. After graduating from Blount High School, he went to Jarvis Christian College in Hawkins, Texas. It was there that he met his loving wife of 48 years. Edd decided that he would serve his country and joined the U.S. Army, serving 20 years.
Edd proved himself to be a wonderful husband, father, and brother. He was an excellent grandfather to his grandchildren, always putting in the extra effort with them. There was nothing he wouldn’t do to make them laugh and enjoy their time together.
Edd is survived by his wife, Rosemary who resides in Columbus, GA; daughter, Kimberly residing in Jacksonville, NC; and three sons, Anthony (Nakia) residing in Jacksonville, NC; Jeremy (Katelyn) residing in Columbus, GA; and Reginald (Mortaysha) residing in San Antonio, TX. He has four sisters: Lizzie residing in Mobile, AL; Mary Liza residing in NY; Daphne and Edith both residing in Mobile, AL and one brother Derrick who resides in Jackson, TN. Though he has moved on to be with his father, mother, sister, and our Lord and Savior, he will always be in our hearts and minds for the rest of our lives.
A father like you is rare, one that is so generous, smart, and kind. A father like you is what everyone needs, full of smiles and laughter, and always doing great deeds. Nothing can replace a father like you, but when you get to heaven, God will be lucky to have you too.
