I can't believe you're gone. I will miss you so much. What a great memory you had. I was always amazed how you could remember our last conversations even when they were years ago. You are forever in my memory as a man of God who was full of love for the COGIC and exemplified how a Christian man should serve, others. If I could see you once more I would stay in your presence as long as I could and I would make an appointment to see you again. I know I'll see you in Heaven Elder Hall.

I was saddened to hear of the passing of your loved one. We attended the annual meeting along with other members of COGIC every December. Elder Hall was always very kind and had such a wonderful spirit. I hope pleasant memeories will bring you a measure of comfort and relief.

My heartfelt sympathy is with the Family of Elder Hall. I had the privilege to know him personally, and truly had much respect for him as a man of God. He will certainly be missed from the fold of COGIC and Penecostal Assembly.
May God continue to bless the Family.

Elder Hall was a friend, a counselor, and a mentor to all. I attended Pentecostal Assembly for many years and witnessed his strong commitment to God, the church, and the community. Although we will miss him greatly, he truly was about "his Father's business" while on this Earth. I thank God for having known him-my pastor.
We love you, Elder Hall and your family. Our prayers are with them and the church.

I was always so proud that a native son of my home city, Jacksonville, FL was the General Secretary of our Grand Ole Church of God in Christ. I always looked forward to seeing him at the Convocation, if even at a distance, as he executed his duties for the Church. What a Servant! Rest in Peace!

To Elder Hall's Sister Linda (my high school classmate), other siblings, relatives and the Church family, Elder Hall will forever be cherished, remembered and loved. May God give the family peace and comfort in this time of sadness and grief. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

God Bless!

I have fond memories of one of the greatest men who ever lived. I will never forget how (through Jessica Ellis) the name "Uncle Buck" came about. The memories shared at my "Aunt Tootsie's" funeral service a bit over a month ago still ring within my heart. A great servant, A great teacher, a great person, will be greatly missed.

My prayers are with the family of Elder A. Z. Hall, Jr. He certainly was a kind and loyal personality in and around the Grand Ole Church of God in Christ for many years. He will be missed from amongst our midst; however, to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.
