It is with sadness we announce the peaceful passing of our dear mother Odila McCallum on October 4, 2012 at 93 years old.

Also left to cherish Odila are her 14 grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren. Sonny passed away in 1967 and she later remarried Rich McCallum in 1971. Together they raised his son Ken. They often went camping and fishing until his passing.
Left to cherish her memory are her brothers Antonio (Gertrude) and Albé. She was predeceased by her three brothers and three sisters.
