Local Businessman Gets a New Heart

Allen Call of Harold’s Restaurant says they had a blessed weekend.  As many know, restaurant owner Harold Call had been on a waiting list for a heart transplant.  Early Friday morning, they received the call that a heart was available, and the family made the trek to Baptist Hospital in Winston-Salem for the transplant surgery.  Allen said his dad was in surgery about 6 hours on Friday and is doing really well.  Harold cannot receive visitors this soon after the surgery but expects to be released by doctors to come home in a couple of weeks.  Also Allen welcomed a new addition to his family Thursday night.  He and his wife were blessed with a baby boy.  Chancey Clark Call weighed in at 7 pound 11 ounces.  “All in all,” Allen told 3WC, “we had a blessed weekend.”
