Stuart "Stu" McCall passed from this life on October 6, 2025. He was born April 2, 1943 to the late Ronald McCall and Mildred McCall in Topeka, KS. He was preceded in death by his Father, Mother and Brother Merrill McCall (Karen) and several aunts, uncles and cousins.

He is survived by his loving wife of 57 years, Janis McCall; daughters Lisa (John) and Meridith (Corey); four grandchildren, Dillon (Ashlie), Hannah, Ethan and Braden; one great grandchild and numerous other family members. His third daughter Stacy is missing and he never stopped looking for her.

Stu loved his family and would do anything for anyone in need. He was a loyal friend and gave the best hugs. He was a member of the National Guard, Phi Delta Theta fraternity and BPOE Lodge 409. He loved going to the lake, family time, supporting his kids and grandkids in whatever they pursued, grilling and using his smoker, traveling adventures and his beloved Kansas State Wildcats.

Services will be at First & Calvary Presbyterian Church, Springfield, MO on Friday, October 10, 2025 at 2:00 PM with a visitation to follow.

In lieu of flowers, please make donations to your favorite charity in his name.
