Merrill “Coach” Callow
Jan. 19, 1923 – Feb. 1, 2014>

[singlepic id=492 w= h= float=center]

Resident of Roseville
Merrill Corlett Callow, died on February 1st 2014. Merrill passed into eternity on his own terms, and was re-united with his wife of 46 years, Barbara Whittingham Callow, his wife of 3 years Carolyn Weirich Callow, his sister Jean Callow Anthony, her husband Gordon Anthony, and his grandson Casey Callow.
Merrill was born on July 19th 1923 in San Francisco, CA, graduated from UC Berkeley in 1945, married his college sweetheart Barbara, and raised two sons Doug and Rick. Merrill was a faithful husband, exceptional father, and the best grandfather & great grandfather ever. As a lifetime educator, coach, and counselor Merrill never missed an opportunity to “help a student help themselves.” He touched many lives through his unselfishness, kindness, and generosity, and will forever be in our hearts – we all will miss his ready smile and awesome sense of humor.
Merrill is survived by his brother Charles Callow, two sons Doug and Rick; five grandchildren Ivan, Rebecca, Josh, Alissa, and Adam; as well as three great grandchildren: Jason Thomas, Aiden, and Katelyn. He will be deeply missed by all who loved and were loved by him, especially his sweetheart for the last 10 years, Shirley Quierolo.
Memorial to be held on February 15, 2014, 2:00 PM (light reception following) at 965 Orchard Creek Lane, Lincoln, CA, 95648.
