Hal’s passing leaves a huge hole in the life of his family and friends. He was a genuine man who love those he came in contact with.
We take comfort in the fact he was a Christian and we’ll see him again.
Blessings to his friends in Hoschton and Braselton. He was every happy with his life there on the farm. For that, I am eternally grateful.
