To Melanie and the Hall family. Your dad was someone I always enjoyed seeing. Usually at Superstore. He was always smiling and a happy man to be around. You will all miss him but in our realm of faith we have that great hope to see him again. Pastor Kevin and Alice
Dear Melanie and family, so sorry for the loss of your dad. God rest his dear soul and comfort all his mourning loved ones with your precious memories!
Bill Hall, or “Uncle Bill” as he was known to us, was part of my childhood memories. I recall many family gatherings and Uncle Bill’s smile and laughter. Over the years, many of us moved around … but the memories remain. My thoughts and condolences to the family.
So sorry for your loss, I remember him when I was a kid when we lived in Yellowknife. He was such a nice fellow. Always had time to talk to us kids
