Obituary: John Douglas Hall, Sr.

            Lyndonville, VT: John Douglas Hall, Sr. age 77, of the Lynburke Road, died in the home he was born in, surrounded by his family Monday, April 22, 2024, following a long battle with declining health issues.

            John was born on September 29, 1946, son to the late Reginald and Beverly (Mitchell) Hall in Lyndonville, VT.  John was raised and educated in Lyndonville graduating from Lyndon Institute in the Class of 1965. He joined the Vermont National Guard serving 16 years.  John worked at Tap & Die for 13 years, later to Flexible Tubing and retired from North East Agriculture. John was an outdoorsman from fishing, deer hunting, gardening, camping, racing, attending his grandchildren’s games, if it was outdoors then he was happy. Especially if it was with family!  He loved going to yard sales and picking up small engine equipment that he would fix and get running like a top.  He was a regular morning member of the “Table of Knowledge” at the Miss Lyndonville Diner and Nick’s Gas N Go was his regular hot spot. John loved cracking jokes and expressing his spunky attitude and he will be terribly missed in the Kingdom.

            He was predeceased by his brother Jeff Lawson and sister Alice Lawson.
