Dennis Hall Obituary

Dennis Allen Hall

b. Feb. 17, 1954  d. Dec. 28. 2013


Dennis died suddenly at home. He is survived by his children, Nicole (32), of Sacramento, CA, Jason (26), and Jake (25), of Sparks, NV, mother, Ruth Hall-Hanly, formerly of San Bruno, CA, and now of Walnut Creek, CA, brothers, David (Mary Ann), of Concord, CA and Richard (Janet) of Columbus, OH.


Dennis grew up in South San Francisco, CA and graduated from South San Francisco High School in 1972. He worked with Granite Rock Company as a trucker.  After relocating to Sparks, NV, he drove for Roadway and Yellow Trucking Companies until his death. He loved his family above all. His favorite pastimes were baseball, hunting, and home improvement projects. His dream vacation was attending baseball's spring training in Arizona, which he was lucky to have done with his sons.


He will be dearly missed by family, friends, and numerous nieces and nephews.

I too am very sad to hear of my friends passing. I have very very fond memories of Dennis. We were in-separable in Jr High and High school. I am so happy I was able to spend a night with him at our 40th reunion. It had been 25-30years since I had seen him and we picked up right where we left off. He will be missed. Ruth, my thoughts are with you.

My deepest sympathy goes out to the Hall Family. I feel very sad to know that Dennis is gone. I knew Dennis through Junior High and High School. He was actually my first boyfriend. I am glad I saw him at our 40th class reunion. I hadn't seen him since high school. I will always remember Dennis.

Dennis was a special childhood and high school friend to both myself and mostly to my husband Rich Aug who had many wonderful memories together during the high school years. While we lost contact with Dennis over the years it was wonderful to see him at our 40th High School reunion in 2012 where we recalled old times. Dennis will always be in our memories. Sadness and prayers to the Hall and Damonte families.
