Mccall
August 18, 1961 – June 9, 2025
In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting your continuous prayers.
Pamela Denise McCall was born in Birmingham, AL on August 18,1961. She accepted Christ at an early age, concentrating her life's work and plan around her love for God. With a never-ending kind word on her tongue, a scripture in her heart and a message to uplift your soul, she walked in truth, and loved with a kindness that a believer in Christ should embody.
Pam spent her early years in Cincinnati, OH where she attended Roll Hill Elementary and graduated from Seton High School with honors. A standout high school basketball player, Pam began her college basketball career at Ohio State before transferring to UC to complete her studies and pursue a career as a Radiology Technologist at the University of Cincinnati Hospital. It is there that she learned the discipline of Mammography, a Radiology discipline designed to promptly detect and diagnose breast cancers and other key abnormalities.
In 1988 Pam married the late Sandford Crawford and relocated to Fredericksburg, VA where she managed an in demand mobile mammography unit for Mary Washington hospital that traveled the Great Lakes and East Coast to provide breast health education and awareness to women across the Region. This assignment was followed by a successful stent as a manager and leader in this space.
Pam's Radiology experience and acumen were sought after nationally, leading to her joining Mayo Clinic's world-renowned Radiology department. Her Mammography expertise made her the perfect candidate for the work. Pam was a national lecturer on the discipline, having written a host of procedural manuals and lectured about Mammography training protocols and acumen in almost all 50 states. Her lectures were certified, equating to continuing education credits for countless Mammography Technologists across the country.
Pam found herself with "a different kind of credibility" in her Mammography career, becoming a breast cancer survivor while educating and lecturing on the discipline. As a child of God who grew up at Galilee Missionary Baptist Church ushering and singing in faith, she witnessed to all while going through her health battle and found her test to have led to an impactful testimony that she shared wherever she went.
Now a Breast Cancer Survivor, Pam sought out a new challenge adding yet another layer of technical expertise to her resume by working in IT with the Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS), to further embed herself into Radiology workflows to support physicians and improved patient outcomes. She routinely trained Residents and instituted process disciplines that made a difference. She excelled at this work, and continued to carry her message of Christ forward.
Pam was a faithful member of Pilgrim Rest Baptist Church in Phoenix, AZ where she taught Young Adult Sunday School and maintained outreach to those in need, feeding and clothing the hungry, always witnessing to transplants to the Valley as a standard practice.
Pam was smart, passionate, kind and God fearing. 25 years later, her professional and faith centric legacy at Mayo Clinic continues to be felt by the Doctors, Fellows, Administrators and Staff within the organization. While witnessing about the goodness of God, serving as a Mammography leader and lecturing across the United States, Pam found time to travel with her family, visiting a host of countries across 6 continents including Antarctica.
Pam left us to be with the Lord June 9, 2025. Preceded in death by her brother Edward McCall Jr., Pam leaves behind a loving mother Bessie T. McCall, a doting father Edward McCall Sr., a baby sister Annette McCall, nieces Ashley Snowden and Lyndsey McCall, a sister in-law Tonya McCall and a host of family and friends. She is already missed.
