Daniel Hall

Danny was a happy baby, who spent his early toddlers years being a typical

boy. He liked to climb on any and everything. Danny had a passion for model

airplanes,especially the World War 2 era. He had a talent like no other for

recreating air battles to hang from his bedroom ceiling. He would assemble,

the models and intricately paint each piece including the inside of the cockpit

control panel. They would be engulfed in fire and smoke, which were created

out of cotton balls shaped into flames painted in red, orange, yellow and black,

resembling actual battles.

Danny attended elementary school in Los Angeles and Compton, before the

family moved to West Covina. Danny attended Bassett High School and

graduated in 1975. He enlisted in the United States Air Force at the age of 17

years. Shortly after enlisting he married his high school sweetheart, Pat Brown

and was deployed to Okinawa Japan. They had one son, Nathaniel Hall, born

August 11, 1982. On March 27, 1996, Danny had a son, Robert E. Hall from a

second marriage while residing in Las Vegas Nevada. He retired from the military

in November 1995. Danny continued to live in Las Vegas for several more years

before moving back to California settling down in the Banning-Cabazon area.

Danny had a host of friends from the Cabazon area that he had only great things

to say about them, including Cheryl, Leland and Jeff. Each cared deeply for Danny.

Danny’s father, Emanuel Hall preceeded his son in death in 2009. Danny is survived

by two sons, Nathaniel of Abilene Texas, 5 granddaughters, Ayjolan 12, Nazariah 8,

Amillyeon 5, Nature 3, Icesis 2 and Robert of Las Vegas, Nevada; his mother Marjie

If you ever had the opportunity to be around Danny, you were guaranteed to have a good

time and a good laugh. Danny chose to experience life for all it had to offer. He was never

looking for accolades (or what some of us may mistake for success). He was the same

all the time. Time spent with him, was definitely an experience. Not expecting anything

from anyone, but the first to offer you the shirt off of his back. Wanting to help whomever

and wherever he could. Danny was a sponge and would absorb everything. Wise beyond

his years, he always was a plethora of information. He taught each and everyone of us

something along the way.

Above all, Danny put family first and would drop everything to be there for you,

if you needed him. He will be missed by many.
