I worked with Hal in the early 80’s. He taught me a great deal, and I thoroughly enjoyed our talks over coffee in the Texas City plant cafeteria. Hal was a class act!

I am just reading about Hal’s passing, He and my dad Joe Johnson worked together many years at Union Carbide in West Virginia. My dad passed away in 2021. He always spoke so highly of Hal and Hal always said good things about my dad. Hal reached out to me when my dad passed away with very kind words.
My condolences Joy Johnson Risinger

Sorry to say, I just read about Hal’s passing. So Sorry. I met Hal in Houston at our Golf Club, The Cactus Club. He was always such a gentleman and was always kind and had funny story to spin. He was a fairly good golfer and fun time to be around. May he rest in Peace.

I was a fellow radio operator and short-time roommate of Hal at Keesler until I was shipped out to Japan-Korea in June, 1954. I lost track of Hal until today when I found his obituary. Hal was everything described in his obituary and I am sure that you will miss him very much. My sincere sympathy. Doug Uthe, Sioux Falls, SD

Sandra, Ron, Karen and family, please accept our deepest sympathy for your loss. Hal was a great husband, father, grandfather and friend. I got to know Hal while working with him on projects for Carbide that created some wonderful memories that I’ll never forget. On some of my trips to Houston in July, I would stop at the Farmer’s Market in Charleston, buy 5 lb of half runners and carry them on the plane for Hal and Sandra. We played golf during some of Hal’s afternoon plant “site...

Hal was one of the engineering giants in the Analytical field in the Oil and Chemical Industry. As part of an old Analyzer guys group, we went hunting for dove every year, on opening day of the South zone in Texas. We have missed Hal, the last couple of years, but I will always remember Hal fondly. We stayed on the Frio River in houses and Hal was one of the stalwarts of that yearly trip. Quick sense of humor and abundant energy and the stories he would tell. Hal was a great shot, and...
