Words cannot express my sadness. Hal was a wonderful, thoughtful, and loving man, and I will miss so much about him, not the least of which is his abiding presence over these many years.
Farewell, true and trusted soul mate.

The loss of someone so close is almost impossible to bear. I share your family's grief. My prayers are with them; my heart is with you.
Rest well, dear one. Meet you at J. Cotten's.

I had the privilege of not only working with Hal, but also had the good fortune of being one of his students in an undergraduate writing course at LSUS. He was a great writer, had a great sense of humor and did a wonderful job with the classes he taught. What a talent? My deepest sympathies to his family.
