We are in total shock. There was not a finer man than Mr. Hal. Remember back to our first camping trip. Your family has always meant so much to us. Mr. Hal was a true definition of a southern gentleman. He loved God and his family unconditionally. His presence will be felt deeply by our family. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
