Angus McColl, 93, passed away February 9, 2022, at Lutheran Medical Center in Wheat Ridge, CO. He was born September 24, 1928 near Falkirk, Scotland to Jane (Somerville) McColl and Peter Alexander McColl. He immigrated to Lander, Wyoming in November of 1954 with his wife, Isobel Blair McColl. He joined the Wyoming National Guard and worked for Robinson Transportation Company before returning to school at University of Wyoming in Laramie and graduating in 1960 with a degree in Animal Science. He was a graduate assistant in Wool Technology when he took a post as Wool Specialist for United States Testing Company, located in Denver, Colorado. He then left US Testing to form his own company and Yocom-McColl Testing Laboratories, Inc. was formed in 1963 by Angus McColl and Ira Yocom. The company started operations as an independent wool and animal fiber testing laboratory in January, 1964. Angus retired in 2020 but never lost his passion for new projects. Survivors include wife, Margaret; sisters, Sheena (Jerry) Pacheco; Mary Cooke; Christina Darling; extended family in Scotland and England; and his many friends in both the wool industry and the alpaca community. His brother, Thomas McColl, preceded him in death. Memorial plans are being made for a future date in Scotland.
