THE JOE SHUSTER AWARDS 
I noticed an article about my great uncle Ted McCall. He was one of 4 children of Alexander McCall, his brothers Lou and Herbert and sister Tina predeased him. My Grandfather, Herbert, Herb had one son name Robert Alexander McCall, who in turn with wife Lyn Sparks (now Chaplin of Peterborough) had 2 boys, Russell Ian (born 1960) of Mississauga and Douglas Alexander (born 1962) of Barrie.
Ted and his wife Elise had a son Ted Jr, also deceased.
I was quite thrilled to read about his inductee into the Hall of Fame, both my brother and I had the honour of reading a leather bound collection of Ted’s Freelance comic books, which my father had inherited. Unfortunately after my father death in the late 70’s we lost contact of many of his belongings.
Thank you for honouring our Uncle Ted.
