Hal's father raised him to be a man of integrity & kindness. He will be remembered by all who knew him as a man of integrity, goodwill, strength of character, and a man of faith in Christ the Lord; the Savior of the world.

Hal had a heart for sharing the Gospel; the good news, that Jesus came to seek and to save that which is lost. That Jesus was not sent to condemn us but to save us.

He wanted that for others.
