Jack Brady McCall's Obituary
Jack B. McCall April 25, 1947 – May 22, 2025
Jack B. McCall, 78, passed away on May 22, 2025, surrounded by his loving family. Born on April 25, 1947, in Loudon, Tennessee, Jack was the son of Rafe and Alta McCall. He graduated from East Central High School in 1965.
On February 10, 1968, Jack married the love of his life, Judy Kay Arnold. Together they built a life in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where they co-founded Plastic Fabricators in the 1970s. In addition to being a successful business owner, Jack enjoyed raising cattle for over 30 years.
Jack’s favorite meal was Judy’s homemade beans and cornbread. He had a deep appreciation for classic cars—his pride and joy, a 1959 Chevrolet Apache Truck nicknamed “The Gambler”, won the Most Popular Car in Show by Spectator Vote two years in a row in 1980–81. He also collected Royal Crown Cola memorabilia, loved watching and talking about all kinds of racing, and never passed up a good gamble.
More than anything, Jack cherished time spent with family, friends, and his beloved dog, Poppy Sue.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Rafe and Alta McCall; sister-in-law, Donna; and nephew, Travis. He is survived by his wife of 57 years, Judy McCall; sons, Lenny (and wife Laura) and Tommy (and wife Carrie); brother, Jim McCall; six grandchildren—Joey (and wife Heather), Megan Howell (and husband Jeff), Shelby Byerley (and husband Jacob), Sheldon (and fiancée Kiley Cypert), Emma McGlasson, and Maddi McGlasson; great-granddaughter, Brynlee Byerley; niece, Debbie McCall; and a host of cherished in-laws and close friends.
A Celebration of Life will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, June 28, at the home of Jack and Judy McCall.
