William Earl McCall

William Earl McCall, 84, of Calhoun Falls, husband of June Waters McCall, died Tuesday, September 29, 2026, at Wesley Commons Health and Rehabilitation Center in Greenwood. He was born in Calhoun Falls to the late Lawrence Earl and Pauline Haralson McCall.

A proud 1960 graduate of Calhoun Falls High School, William served his country in the United States Navy on the USS Laffey during the Korean Conflict. Following his military service, he built a long and dedicated career as an electrical mechanic at the former Pirelli Cable (now Prysmian). He retired after 35 years of service, a reflection of his commitment, dependability, and strong work ethic.

William was a man of deep faith and active involvement in his church. He was a member of Northside Baptist Church in Calhoun Falls, where he served as a deacon and trustee. He also took part in the Men’s Prayer Group and the Men’s Breakfast Group, sharing fellowship, encouragement, and spiritual commitment with others in his church family.

He found joy in simple and lasting pleasures, especially fishing, and was an avid Clemson fan. William was a Mason and life time member of the Calhoun Falls Masonic Lodge. He will be remembered with respect and gratitude for his years of service to his country, his community, his church, and his profession. His life stands as a testament to faithfulness, dedication, and quiet strength.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his brother, Doug McCall; three brothers-in-law, Garnett Hall, Paul Cape and Luke Waters; and his father and mother-in-law, John S. and Mattie Cain Waters.

William is survived by his wife of 60 wonderful years, June; two daughters, Tori Roatch of Greenville and Tisa McCall of Greenwood; two grandchildren, Carson Morgan (Cameron) and Brayden Lewis; great-grandson, McCall Ford Morgan, all of Greenville; sister, Jeanette Hall of Honea Path; sister-in-law, Linda McCall of Calhoun Falls; and very special family friends, Billy Lewis and Sandra Reynolds and Karen Ashley.

The family will receive friends 2:00PM – 3:00PM, Friday, October 2, 2026, at Northside Baptist Church, 205 Marion Street, Calhoun Falls, SC. Funeral services will begin at 3:30 PM in the church sanctuary. Burial will follow in Latimer Cemetery with military honors.
