Harold L Hall's Obituary
HALL
Harold, L, 82, of Mahwah died peacefully on April 20, 2013. His wife Joan and children were gathered together at his bedside, where they celebrated his life in a private way, in accordance with his wishes. The long struggle with Parkinson's disease is now behind him and he has taken his place amongst the angels.
Born in Providence, Rhode Island, Harold grew up in Massachusetts and spent most of his adult life in New Jersey. He lived a life of service – to his country in Korea, to his community, and to his family and friends. An extraordinary educational leader, counselor, husband, father, grandfather and friend, he gave all of himself every day of his life. Harold worked for the West Milford Public School District for over thirty years, and then served as Executive Director of the Passaic County Elks Cerebral Palsy Centers for another decade. He was a member of the American Legion, Mahwah, NJ Post #531, and had resided for his final month in the NJ Veterans Memorial Home at Paramus.
Harold was beloved by his family, and is survived by Joan, his adoring wife of twenty years. His very proud children and their families include: John and Danielle Hall, and Devon, Jordan and Dillon Hall of Morristown, NJ; James and Debra Hall, and Isabella and Samara Hall of Boca Raton, FL; Kevin and Denise Hall, and Marisol and Miranda Hall of Albuquerque, NM; and Mary and Mark Siniscalchi, and Nicholas and Madison Siniscalchi of Wayne, NJ.
The family is asking that friends please celebrate Harold's life in a way which reflects their individual faiths, beliefs and traditions. Those who wish to honor Harold's memory are asked to make a donation to the Parkinson's Disease Foundation, 1359 Broadway, Suite 1509, New York, NY 10018.
