Jettie McCall Hogans

Jetttie McCall Hogans passed away on January 1, 2021. She was born on October 14, 1925 in Miami, FL, to the late Lovette and Tiney B. McCall. Jettie was the loving wife of the late Coach Thomas Hogans.

She graduated from A. L. Lewis Elementary, Old Stanton High School, both in Jacksonville, FL, and Florida A&M University in Tallahassee, FL.

Jettie taught at R.C. Bannerman Elementary School in Green Cove Springs, FL, and W.E. Cherry Elementary School in Orange Park, FL. She also taught Adult Education (night school) at Dunbar High School in Green Cove Springs.

Jettie played the piano and organ, was an excellent baker and she found baking to be her calling. She enjoyed sewing and made her own clothing, loved to grow fruit trees — especially her orange trees — and she was a social butterfly — Jettie enjoyed people and people enjoyed her.
