We moved from England to Texas in 2005 and Hal was our neighbor April’s Father
We would celebrate all the usual things and Hal was always the life and soul of the party and he made me laugh
There wasn’t a political correct bone in his body and I would love the little sit downs under the patio and Hal telling us all his stories about the navy, NASA and Vegas.
The man was an absolute character and we will all miss him so much
Sleep tight Hal and thanks for the memories

We will miss you Papaw Dan. I’m so sorry I was not there to tell you goodbye. You were a wonderful grandfather, you stepped in when needed. You were also an amazing Husband to my grandmother Joyce. We love you.
Dan was part of our family too, even though no mention above, as he married my mom Joyce Lee Spell-Bohn. He brought joy back into her life and for that we are forever grateful. He went above and beyond when she got sick and took care of her until her passing 12 years ago in Aug 2012. Thank you April for sharing your dad with us. We always cared for him and how he was doing. I’m sorry we weren’t notified of his passing.
