I am very sorry to hear today of Hal's passing. I remember his caring attention to us, as he graciously showed us, a few people having visited next door, his amazing, delighting collection of archaeological artifacts he and his wife had collected over the years. I am still grateful. Those who are remembered live. Blessings!
