Thinking of all of you. I am Carroll’s 1st cousin and my mother is the late Wilma McCallum Pettigrew. Family is really important to the McCallums. We were all excited in Mississippi when Carroll, Gloanne and children would come to see to us. We all really looked up to Carroll and admired him.
I am so sorry to hear about Carroll. My thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time.
I am Carroll’s 1st cousin. My mother is the late Helen McCallum Kinslow from Mize, MS. She always spoke very fondly of Carroll and Gloanne.
