Mario Deshun McCall's Obituary
Mario Deshun McCall was born December 18, 1984, in Shelby County, Tennessee to Floyd McCall, Sr. and Annette Minor. He was a member of Mars Hill Missionary Baptist Church as a child where he played the drums. This foundation enabled him to continue to believe that Christ resided in the heart, not a building. He was married to Quinisia LaShelle McCall on August 22, 2020.
Mario Deshun McCall developed his love of family, fun and music growing up in Binghampton. His avid love of music overflowed into all genres from Gospel to Country. He attended East High School where he was member of the marching band playing the bass drum. After graduating high school in 2003, he further developed his love of music by attending college at THE Jackson State University on a Band Scholarship. He later obtained his Bachelors of Computer & Electronics Engineering from ITT Technical Institute in 2013.
Mario Deshun McCall was truly an anchor to his family. He was the baby yet took on the role of big brother to others. He enjoyed life but was most prideful in how he loved and cared for his wife, children and making sure his family was taken care of. He was well rounded and skilled in many things, including car detailing as a business endeavor. There wasn’t a time you would call Mario and he didn’t come to be of service. He made sure anyone who asked received dependable and exceptional service when he was called. Most times he’d show up riding his motorcycle and could be heard from a mile away. He truly loved his Badville Motorcycle Club Family, where he held office as Secretary. He could be found shooting pool, dancing the floor, joking, playing music, games or assisting others in preparing their bikes to ride with him or swapping racing stories. He truly loved motorcycling as a hobby and riding with his brothers.
Mario Deshun McCall was the life of every party. He loved to speak in unintelligible Spanish, occasionally answering his phone, “No esta’ aqui!” Me speaka no ingle’s!” -“Yo Quiero Taco Bell” or “Joe's Pool hall, 8 ball speaking, how can I help you?” His son Trey would say he was the daddy and disciplinarian that kept him on track and taught him life lessons to pass on to his children. His mother-in-law, Cordra, would say he loved her just as much, if not more than her own sons and continued to make provision for her.
