Donnie was born March 23, 1941, to the home of George William Hall and Willie Mozell Rogers in Wood County, Texas.
Before his first birthday the family moved to Clarendon where Donnie would call home.
On May 2, 1969, he married Cleta Mae Strawbridge and they enjoyed 53 wonderful years together.
Donnie spent most of his life as a working cowboy, but also spent time as a welder and a truck driver. But the calling to be a cowboy was always his passion. He worked several ranches around the Panhandle, but the Lewis Ranches in Clarendon was his home for 19 years. Once he had hung up his spurs at the ripe age of 70, he decided to see the country on the back of a Harley. Ironically his favorite mount was a horse named Harley.
His greatest passion; however, was loving and serving Jesus. Donnie loved playing his guitar and singing in church. He taught Sunday School and Bible classes.
Music was a valuable part of his life. He truly enjoyed getting together with his friends to play and sing anytime the opportunity arose. He also served as a Donley County Commissioner for 16 years.
Donnie was preceded in death by his parents, a sister Vanetta Carol Hall and brother Marvin Ray Hall.
He is survived by his wife Cleta; brother Perry Michael Hall and wife Loyce; four sons – Buddy Joe Hall and wife Shawn, Shannon Odell Hall and wife Rhonda, William Shane Hall and wife Hollie, and Timothy Don Hall and wife Stacie; eight grandchildren – Ryan Hall and wife Tori, Lyndsey K’Dawn Pippin and husband Carl, Whitney Hall, Kadee Belle Hall, Dakota Jo Hall, Dillon Hall, Jolie Hall, and Keaslie Hall; three great grandchildren – Roxie Mae Hall, Jaxson Don Hall, and Amelia Jo Hall; and a whole host of other family, friends, and brothers and sisters in Christ.
Donnie’s legacy was living a life that exemplified Christ and strived to bring others to know The Lord. His life itself was a witness to everyone who knew him and he freely gave his testimony to anyone he encountered. His final words were, “Oh, my Jesus my Jesus.”
