Gary Dan Hall, a loving son, brother, father and grandfather, went home to be with the Lord on Friday, January 10, 2020, after a long battle with dementia.
Dan was born in Clarendon on April 15, 1960, and lived there until he moved into the Memphis Convalescent Home in Memphis in October of 2017. Well-known for serving others and serving his Lord through singing.
He was preceded in death by his father, Doyle Clayton Hall. He leaves behind his wife, Michelle Hall; four daughters, one son, and one-step daughter: Candice Hall of Amarillo; Brittney Barnes of Dolgeville, New York; MaRae Hall of Panhandle; MimRosz Hall of Newkirk, Oklahoma; Thad Hall of Denton; and MiKayla Shadle Milburn of Dallas.
He is survived by his mother, Carol Hall of Clarendon, and two sisters: Sue Jones of Wichita, Kansas and Janie Taylor of Fort Worth. Dan was also the proud grandfather of three grandchildren: Harleigh, Kighlah, and Daniel and three step-grandchildren: Julian, Liv and Jace all of Dolgeville, New York. He is also survived by many uncles, aunts, cousins, nieces and nephews.
Dan “never met a stranger”. He loved people and enjoyed joking around. Dan farmed for many years with his dad. If he wasn’t on the tractor, he was usually at Floyd’s Automotive, swapping stories. Dan always looked for opportunities to do kind deeds for others. He loved the senior saints at Calvary Baptist Church in Clarendon. In fact, some of them are not too happy with him leaving this earth before them. They planned for him to sing at their funerals.
The funeral service for Dan was held at Calvary Baptist Church in Clarendon, on Monday, January 13, at 2:00 p.m. Interment followed at Citizen’s Cemetery immediately following the service.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests you make a donation to Calvary Baptist Church, Clarendon.
