Hello Jones Family,
I am so sorry for your loss Kathy.
I sat down to eat a great pizza today "HomeRun Inn" frozen but pretty good. The first fresh one from Cicero I ever had was from your Hal. I was married to your moms cousin Tom and we were all friends. Hal was a great guy and I´m so very sorry for your loss. If your mom ever wants to connect here is my number.

So I will keep trying not as hard as I have in the past but I will be here for this family no matter what. I love you please send me extra strength and power because I need it!!

Hal, we sure did miss you this year with the hurricane in FL. Wanted to hear your "Hippity Dippity" weather reports, but the storm hit the west coast so hope all was well in your area. We opened a site in Facebook about our old Classmates friends and you would have loved the reunion and how many people still miss you. We're 'on the road' in our camper, currently in TX, weathered a storm that hit S TX and stayed in Fredericksburg until it was safe to go south. You've probably had a few friends join you in recent years. Hugs.

Hal, Nancy C and I were just talking about you on FB and remembering you. You are still missed. You would have loved FB, it's even better than CM was for a chat site. You sure missed a hurricane last summer, hit my old hometown of Savannah. They could have used your hippidy dippidy weather reports. Miss you buddy.

Hal, another year has passed. You went to Heaven the same day Mary C was born, remember, she was in the ER the day we lost you, had a feeling of peace come over her and then she was ok, so we figured you were her guardian angel watching over her that day on your way to heaven. We still miss you. You have not been forgotten. It's been a while since I've written, and we've moved again, but you have not been forgotten. I'm still saying prayers for your family.

Jessica, No, we have never met, just like I never met your Dad in person, but chatted with him for years on an internet site. He was a veteran and a wonderful person, still is, just not here on earth. When I read your post, I know I did the right thing in keeping this site open. I lost my Dad in 1988 and my Mom in 2002 and still miss them still miss them to this day. Back then, I knew nothing about these sites, if they had them, and wish I did. Your Dad sure raised some wonderful kids and I'm happy for you that you have a place to remember and chat with him. Just know that he is indeed a guardian angel and is keeping watch over you all and knows what wonderful young adults you have become. Your Dad was loved by many. He loved this country and kept us laughing on our rough days. May God Bless you all.

You are not forgotten, you just have a better seat at the game. Miss you and sending hugs.

Hal, though the time we spent together in DC was short, it was dynamic! God brought our paths (you and Dan) together for His purposes at that time!! You impacted my life and I am grateful. I see the picture that I took of you, Dan and Jim with your Marshal t-shirts on and it all floods back to me!! Miss you. Miss the time spent. Looking forward to the day we are all together in heaven and reminiscing. :-) Prayers up for those you love who are still feeling your loss. Hugs, Chelle

Dear Hal, It's been another year and we still miss your presence and your sense of humor and deep patriotism. America really needs you, but we're fighting the good fight in your honor. I pray you are enjoying your time at the right hand of God. Until we meet, we miss you.
PS heard it might be a heavy hurricane season this year. Can you still send us the weather reports?

Hal, it's been a while, and more of our dear friends have joined you. Robin has been there keeping you company almost a year now...I remember you were always so worried about her. Then Val, and now Jen/Cranky/Victoria (Yvonne) did you meet her up there and welcome her to the group?
Be glad you're not here Hal, I can see You'd be pounding the computer keys with all the crazy stuff that has happened to this country. It's so sad, people seem to have forgotten what America was and was meant to be. We're fighting for Her though - Always will. Miss having you in the fight Hal. From one Vet to another, we never forget.

Hal, the memories of standing in DC protecting the WWII Memorial with you are still vivid in my memory! I am blessed having met and known you, and shared those 2 days of events with you all. I remember the laughter over the vietnamese food, and you guys exchanging war stories. My life is richer for the experience and having met you and the others that weekend. My prayers go up for your family, as I know they are missing you more than I. Life has given some rough circumstances here, and set my kids and I back into the grieving...their friend committed suicide June 9, and it has brought up other grief and losses with it. May God continue to wrap His loving arms around your family and give them comfort and peace that only He can give. See you Heaven side, Hal!

Hal, Sandra Meadows called me from Georgia and in the course of our conversation naturally your name was mentioned along with Dennis Underwood. Yes, we spoke fondly of you both. You must have heard us since I opened my email & it lead me back to your Guest Book. See we have not forgotten you. Your memory will live on through all that knew and loved you Hal. We were talking about going to the Wall in June again this year and remembered how excited you were when talking about going there so we could all meet up. We miss you Hal, but know you are safe with our Heavenly Father waiting to be reunited with your loving family. Rest in Peace.......Becki

Merry Christmas to you Hal. You have the best spot in the house for the Birthday of Jesus, and know you're sitting by his side and giving him 'what for' about what is going on in America. We sure miss your input down here on the boards. Miss all our chats and weather reports and fusses at the libs, but we're trying to pick up where you left off. Guess you know that Robin is doing better, thanks for nudging God on our prayers about her. We still miss you and are still saying prayer for your family, as we know Christmas is hard when missing loved ones. Say Hi to my parents for me. Hugs to you in Heaven.

Hi Hal,
I was sad the day I heard you left us..
Although I have never signed your guest book before,,,I do come here every week and say a Prayer for You and Your Family..
The one thing you wanted to do in your lifetime was... go see the Vietnam Wall...and you got to do it!!!
The excitement in your posts on CM about being there, brought tears to my eyes..
I will forever miss our "Hippy Dippy Weatherman in Flordia!"
Rest in Peace My Friend

Hal, I had just finished uploading pictures from my visit to the Wall this year, I was thinking about you while doing the pictures, and came over to find an email where another post was made to your guestbook.
You are certainly missed and on our minds a lot. I am sorry I never got to meet you in person, but sincerely appreciated the opportunity to get to know you on Classmates.
It is through people such as yourself, Hal, that served our country with such Pride & Honor that makes me proud to be an American.
I hope this guestbook remains as a comfort to your precious family whom I know you are looking down upon and lifting their spirits through your love.

Hal, I didn't forget you on July 14th, but I was having my own health issues and couldn't get on the computer to let you know - but I know you already know that. I bet you were wishing Mary happy birthday too. Can't believe we've been missing you a year.
We haven't forgotten you - will never forget you and talk about you often on Robin's thread where she is still fighting this horrible cancer. We all know you're up there in heaven watching over her.
Just wanted to let your family know we have not forgotten you. We sure miss you in all the discussions of what is going on in this country, and know you're having your own TEA Parties in heaven with the original folks.
Hal, I still Salute you!

Hal,
We want you to know you have not been forgotten on this Memorial Day for our fallen Veterans. You were a true hero and we thank you for your serice to Our country.
You are greatly missed, loved, and we so miss our conversations on Classmates and other boards. Your patriotism and love for country, wife, family is such and inspiration.
We know you are sitting by Gods side and keeping watch over the rest of us. If this shows up twice, we're at a remote location and the computer keeps going out - so I'm not sure my first thoughts will be posted - so you may doubly know we were thinking of you on this day.
God Bless You Hal,
Jan & Joe Leinweber, USAF Ret.

On this Memorial Day, You are not forgotten. We still miss you, we still Honor you, we still love you. I know you are with our Lord watching over all your family and friends.

Hal, I guess you know by now that Dennis Underwood AF SSgt has left us here on April 09, and is now checking through to serve Sentry beside you at Heaven's Gate. I remember when you became so ill and Dennis actually paid for a gold membership on Classmates just so he could read the messages Becky Mahoney left for us on your failing condition. I am going back down to the Wall for Sandra's husband, Gene, on Monday, and I will leave something there for Dennis now, and you again. I still regret that we didn't get to meet up for Memorial Day at the Wall, but I left something there for you as I told you I would. You and Dennis behave yourself up there. We really miss you a lot on Classmates. I have no one else following me around at 4AM in the morning. I still have that sleeping problem. Just was thinking about you today and wanted you to be on the look out for Dennis. You are still thought of, missed, and mentioned a lot on Classmates. We hold your memory, and prayers for your family close to our hearts.

I have been thinking of you Hal. I didnt get to talk with you much, but Ive read many of your words. I feel as though I do know you. As the end of this year drew closer, I began to think about you more. How we on Classmates lost a true Patriot Soldier and a wonderful man who has been missed this year and forever will be.
You left a memorable mark on my life with your words, as I am a daughter of a Vietnam Vet. I am forever gratefull that I was able to exchange written words with you, if even a few times in my life. I wonder if you even knew how many lives you have touched while you walked this Earth...maybe you already know. I bring in this New Year with thoughts of you.
I continue to pray for your wife Kathy and family.
Rest in Gods Loving Arms dear Hal,
Connie

Hal, for no special reason, I was thinking of you today. I read some of the posts from some of your old boards, you are still not forgotten, and you are missed in there and on Classmates. Maybe I was thinking of you because I filled out Christmas cards last night, and was remembering all the loved ones and friends we've lost this year. Robin is still hanging in there and fighting her cancer, but then I'm sure you know that and have been watching over her.
Kathy, how are you doing? This is a time of year when we reflect on those we love and miss, and I know that though we never met, you loved Hal a great deal and he sure loved you. Please take care and know that there are prayers for you, still today as Christmas approaches.
