Family says state Rep is recovering from heart surgery

The new legislative session begins with an Elbert County state Rep recuperating from recent heart surgery: 62 year-old Republican Tom McCall underwent bypass surgery at a hospital in Athens. His family says in a Facebook post he is expecting to be back at work soon, at his farm in Elbert County and at the Capitol in Atlanta. 

"Tom had bypass surgery today and is recovering nicely. Hope to be back to the farm and Capitol soon. Continued prayers appreciated for him and me because keeping him down is going to be a difficult job for me. Sending our love and hugs to all."
