We end 1998 on a very sad note as we report the passing of Mary Hall, wife of T/Sgt. Willis R. Hall - POW/MIA - Laos - Lima Site 85. Mary passed away Wednesday, December 30th. Those of us who were fortunate enough to know Mary will miss her greatly. She was a woman of strong faith, great spirit and enormous courage. As her good friend, Ann Holland stated:
"She fought the good fight and now one of God's soldiers has gone home."
Both Dolores Apodaca Alfond and Lynn O'Shea got to know Mary well over the last several years. She was our rock during the annual meetings in Washington D.C. Mary was our island of calm in a sea of craziness. Quite simply, Mary was a cool lady.
To Mary's son, Steve and daughter Jean, we offer our deepest sympathy. We can only imagine how much you will miss her, because we know how much we will miss her.
Services will be Monday morning, January 4th, 1998, at 10:00 AM. All in the area are welcome to attend. Cards may be sent to:
The Family of Mary Hall
c/o Timmons Funeral Home

In Lieu of Flowers, Steve and Jean ask that contributions be made to:
