Bernadette Hall Obituary

Hall, Bernadette
SOUTH TROY - Bernadette "Bunny" Hall, 64, passed away unexpectedly, Saturday, July 8, 2023.
Born in Albany, on August 7, 1958, to the late Charles Spiegel Sr. and the late Anna Mae Rootes. Bunny married her husband, Kevin R. Hall Sr. in 1977, the two went on to settle in South Troy and raise two sons.
In 1989, Bunny's love for animals led her to what would be a lifelong career in dog grooming, eventually even opening her own shop, TLC Pet Grooming, in 2003. Over the years Bunny had many faithful fur companions, most recently though, her sidekick Zeus. You could always recognize her throughout the streets of South Troy, either joy riding on her scooter or hearing her from miles away, with her infectious laugh.
In addition to her loving husband, survivors include her two sons, Kevin R. Hall Jr. and Michael R. Hall, both of Troy. She was "Gramma Bun" to her six grandchildren, Mackenzi, Kendra, Mackayla, Ethan, Kevin, and Nina; Bunny is also survived by her mother, Winifred Ann Labounty Spiegel; siblings, Charles (Claire) Spiegel Jr., Charlann Spiegel, Michael (Meg) Spiegel, Jerry (Maria) Spiegel, Jason (Claire) Spiegel, Norman (Elaine) Labounty, Jeff Labounty, Charles Labounty and Ronnie Mark (Donna) Labounty; as well as five great-grandchildren, several nieces, nephews, and many friends.
Services for Bernadette will be held Thursday evening, 7 p.m. at the Wm Leahy Funeral Home, 336 Third St., Troy. Relatives and Friends are invited to attend and may call at the funeral home Thursday from 4-7 p.m.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you carry on Bunny's love for our four-legged fur friends by donating in her name to HeartsHerd Animal Sanctuary and Rescue Center.

Bunny has been part of my family since I was a kid. I don't remember a time in my life that she and Kevin weren't together. She had a great laugh. She had a great live of animals, always trying to find the strays a home or taking them in herself. She will be greatly missed. Kevin, Kevin, and Michael, I am so sorry for your loss.
