Ruby C. McCall
AIKEN - Mrs. Ruby C. McCall, 92, loving wife of the late Arthur Cannie "Jack" McCall, passed away Friday, April 10, 2020.
A private graveside service will be held 11am Tuesday, April 14, 2020 at Aiken Memorial Gardens with The Rev. Dr. Chris Masters officiating.

Vernon, retiring after 40 years of service. Mrs. McCall had been married to her late husband Jack for 59 years. She was of Baptist faith.
Best known as Nana, her love for those who knew her was relentless. She was the most caring and giving soul we knew. She was faithful in every way and her honesty and life experience was a treasure to us all. To know her was to love her.
