Joshua F Hall

Joshua was a lifelong Arizona resident. He was one of three children to Sam Naughton Hall and Rick Hall.

Joshua was raised in Chandler and Scottsdale, AZ. He represented North Scottsdale's Desert Mountain High School (5A) in Varsity Wrestling and three Varsity Track & Field events (short sprints & long jump) at multiple State Championships. After graduating in 2009, Joshua went on to study and train to be a Wildland/Forest Firefighter at MCC, in addition to excelling in specialized courses for EMT certification, nutrition and fitness training. He was passionate about his family and compassionate to all -- especially the homeless. We will miss what was... however, we will miss what was next even more.

At Joshua’s request, he became a body/organ donor. It’s been confirmed that he is helping several children/people and burn victims see, walk and live longer healthier lives.

Joshua is survived by his mother, Sam Naughton Hall; father, Rick Hall; brother, Brandon Hall; sister, Brittany Coe and husband Michael; niece, Jolene Coe; and beloved best friend (big fluffy dog) Genghis. He also leaves his maternal grandmother Arsenia Naughton; paternal grandparents Don & Patti Hall; and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins. He is preceded in death by his maternal grandfather, Richard Francis Naughton.

A viewing will be held on Friday, December 30, 2016, at 1pm followed by a Celebration of Life service at 2pm, at Valley of the Sun Funeral Home in Chandler, AZ. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you sign the Online Guest Book at the link below (will be preserved for the family) and also consider a $25 donation to the local Arizona chapter of Childhelp USA. Or, another optional support outlet: Several people have contacted family and/or the funeral home with a strong desire to donate funds towards Josh's funeral expenses, to honor Joshua's memory. A GoFundMe page has now been set up for them at: https://www.gofundme.com/JoshHallMemorial
