Judy McCall Obituary

Judy Quine McCall died peacefully on May 30th at the age of 74 after her courageous battle with Cancer. She is a lifetime resident of Baton Rouge. She graduated from Baton Rouge High School and attended University of Southwestern Louisiana. She was a loving wife and mother and the best "GiGi" ever. She inspired everyone who knew her by the way she embraced life and lived each day with a positive attitude. She loved dancing, traveling, playing cards and spending time at the beach. Judy is preceded in death by her parents, Walter and Mildred Quine, and husband Dr. John Sullivan, Jr. She is survived by her loving husband of 13 years, Colonel(R) James R. McCall; daughter, Shannon Morgan and husband Steven; and her two granddaughters, Madison and Abbie Morgan. The family would like to thank Hospice of Baton Rouge and the staff of the Butterfly Wing for all of their care and compassion. Also, many thanks to Dr. Chris McCanless and his associates for their exceptional care. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. A Celebration of Life will be shared with family and friends.

Judy and I met through great friends and shared a wonderful Bible Study group for several years. We grew closer to God and to each other with our fellowship and friendship at each others homes each week.
I also was a great fan of her retail shop and admired the relationship she and her daughter Shannon had in conducting their business together and their precious family life.
Judy was always smiling and had a wonderful way of making you feel comfortable.
God bless her and her family, what a sad loss for you all.
Love,
Jeanne Triche
