Hal Mendenhall Clyde

Aunt Aileen, Michael, Kevin, and Courtney. I'm so sorry to hear of Uncle Hal's death. Memories of Uncle Hal and family gatherings are synonymous and inseparable. They come flooding back in a kaleidoscope of happy memories filled with Uncle Hal's bear hugs, playing pool, guinea pigs, the library, Uncle Hal's pictures, fresh sliced peaches, homemade ice cream, and throwing rocks over the back fence. Uncle Hal made us feel as though we were so special. How dearly we loved our Uncle Hal. ...

Hal was a great friend and mentor to me during the many years we worked together on the transportation commission. We visited virtually every corner of the state together and Hal always treated us with stories about the history and development of highways and bridges in Utah. His experiences building Utah were so vast, we hardly ever found a place where he couldn't recite some interesting construction stories. Hal was tough minded and unyielding in his determination to deal with people...

To Aileen and all your family. We were sorry to hear of Hal's death. He was a great force in our family, and I always looked forward to talking with him. We are sorry that we are in Houston for our granddaughter's baptism and will miss the funeral. It would be wonderful to be there.

Aileen, Mike, Kevin and Courtney
Words can't express what's felt at a time like this.
I had such a wonderful time growing up with your family.
Uncle Hal was such fun, and, of course, he looked more like my dad than the other brothers.
My love and prayers go out to you at this time.

Michael, I was sorry to read of your Fathers passing. What a great life he lived. So many accomplishments. Hope you are doing well in Palo Alto. Drop me a line.
