Harold E. Hall, a cherished husband, father, grandfather, and friend, passed away peacefully at home on April 10, 2024, at the age of 75. Born on January 17, 1949, in Lyon County, KY, Harold lived a full life marked by dedication to his family, a passion for the outdoors, and a legacy of hard work and kindness.
Harold is survived by his loving wife of 56 years, Barbara Sue Thorning Hall, and their children: Barbie Mitchell and her husband Stephen, Harold E. Hall Jr. and his partner Debbie, sisters, Kathi Carroll and her husband, Larry of Eddyville, Mary Ramey and her husband, James of Cadiz and Linda Sandefur and her husband, Henry of Evansville, IN. He was a proud grandfather to Christopher Oliver and his wife Megan, Ashton Turner, Dallas Oliver, Hunter Hall, and Hadlee Hall, and a doting great-grandfather to Paysen, Jadisen, Easton, Grayson, and Waylon Oliver, as well as Amari Crumble.
Predeceased by his parents, Clifton and Dorothy Hall, and his siblings Elizabeth Stone, Jewell Goodman, and Hale Hall. He carried the memory of his dearly departed with grace, ensuring their stories continued through his own.
Harold’s life was one of tireless industry. As a self-employed construction worker and commercial fisherman, he was known for his strong work ethic and his ability to turn any task into a labor of love. His colleagues and friends from the workforce and fishing community remember him as a man who could always be relied upon, a true testament to his character.
His interests were a mirror of the simple, beautiful life he led. Harold cherished spending time with his family above all else. Whether it was fishing, hunting, or simply enjoying a cup of coffee, he found joy in life’s uncomplicated pleasures. He had a passion for driving around the lake, making sure the water was “fit to fish,” and could often be found tending to his garden or casting a line, at peace with the world.
Those who knew Harold will remember him as the epitome of gentleness-a man whose serene demeanor and kind heart left a lasting impact on everyone he met. He had a way of making the world around him a better place, just by being in it. His gentle spirit, unwavering integrity, and the love he so freely gave will be forever missed.
As we say goodbye to Harold, we celebrate a life well-lived. A life filled with love, laughter, and the richness of everyday moments. He was a man who taught us the value of hard work, the importance of family, and the joy of living a life true to oneself.
We take solace in knowing that Harold’s legacy will live on through the lives of his family and through the many stories that will continue to be told in his honor. As the sun sets on his final day, we imagine him in his favorite spot by the lake, rod in hand, with a smile on his face, content in the knowledge that he left the world a better place.
Harold’s life will be celebrated in the hearts of those he touched, and his memory will be cherished forever. We bid farewell to a remarkable man, whose journey through life was as rich and rewarding as the love he shared with us all. Rest in peace, Harold E. Hall. Your gentle soul has left an indelible mark on this world
