Our heartfelt sympathy and condolences go out to Bev and her wonderful family on this terribly sad loss of Hal, their precious and beloved husband, father, uncle, and best friend.

Bev, Dan, and Jeff:



I can't tell you all how sorry I was to hear about Hal. My prayers and thoughts are with you all. You all know how sweet Hal was to me, he will be missed. I will always remember him telling me, "two ice cubes in my orange juice", and how he talked about how much his family meant to him, and I should always charish mine, "always".
