Obituary of Thomas James McCall

Please share a memory of Thomas to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Tom McCall, loving father, grandfather, and Santa Cruz native passed away June 26, 2014 at the age of 82. Tom came from a long lineage of local Santa Cruzians beginning with his great-grandfather Hugh Pablo McCall, who arrived in Santa Cruz in 1828. Tom's grandfather, James B. McCall, was one of the first fisherman in the Monterey Bay, and his grandmother, Clara McCall, was a member of the Rodriguez family of Villa de Branciforte. James and Clara's son, Tom McCall Sr., was a successful businessman who owned McCall's Furniture at Pacific Avenue for over 25 years. In his lifetime, Tom McCall Jr. experienced an amazing era of Santa Cruz history and culture. Antique dealer, appraiser, fisherman, storyteller, and all around pirate, Tom was not a man who lived by convention. With one eye missing and the other on the prize, Tom searched for treasure every day of his life. He was a man measured not by current standards or net worth, but by his life experience and the desire to travel his path, with friends galore and a few enemies to match. There are hundreds of adventures and stories to be told, so we invite you to share in a celebration of Thomas James McCall Jr's life on Monday, July 14th, from 4 to 7 PM at Aldo's, next to the Santa Cruz harbor. Tom is survived by Judy McCall, his children Tom and Bonny McCall, and grandchildren Jackson, Tuesday, and Sean McCall.
