Not sure what to say?

My sympathies to the family of Bill. I had the privilege to have Bill as my first college choral director at IVCC. I served one year as his secretary in the music department while I was studying with him. He was a fine musician, conductor, and a wonderfully nurturing teacher. I must say I had a great start to my music career with Bill's excellent training, of which I am still enjoying. God bring you comfort and peace in your loss.

I have met very few people in my life who have made me feel so comfortable and good about who I was each and every time I was around them. Uncle Bill was one of those people. He was kind, gentle, and caring. He always took the time to show a genuine interest in my world no matter what age I was.

A great man and friend! Bill brought the IVCC music department to the top. His productions of the Madrigal was the finest! It transported you back to 'Ye old England' Prayers and condolences to the family. We were colleagues at IVCC.

I´m sorry to hear of the passing of Mr. Hall. My sincerest condolences to his family and all those who knew him. He was one of my first instructors at IVCC in the summer of 1981. I took a music appreciation course with him and it changed my life. Thanks to him and his class, I developed a fondness for classical music.
