Hilda L. Hall

Hilda was the fourth of eight children and is preceded in death by her husband of 55 years, Richard Ellis (Pete) Hall, her son John Hall, her sister Sarah Battle, and brothers, J.T. Long, Ray Long, and Nathan Long. She is survived by siblings, Huey Long, Ann Wiss (Vic) and Jane Van Horn (Jim), as well as son Richard Hall (Judy), daughters, Loureesa Lindsey (Steve), Sherry Falgout (Joey) and daughter- in-law Bobbie Hall. Hilda was blessed with 7 grandchildren Drew Hall (Mary), Kelli Kitchens (Greg), Brandon Hall (Molly), Heather Hayes (Logan), Ryan Falgout (Roxanne), Judi Hall, Ben Hall and 7 great grandchildren.

Hilda graduated from Tuscaloosa High School in 1949. She worked for Gulf States Paper and later retired from Sears Department Store after 20 years of service. Hilda was a founding member of Northridge Baptist Church and recently attended Northwood Hills Baptist Church where she enjoyed the fellowship of her Sunday School class. She was a resident of Presbyterian Apartments for 14 years where she developed endearing friendships while enjoying the activities and attending Bible studies. The family would also like to express their gratitude to the staff of the Presbyterian Apartments for their care and attentiveness. Hilda was fun loving, she loved people, she loved a good story, she enjoyed games of cards, sporting events and anything that her grandchildren or great grandchildren participated in. She will be remembered as a devoted wife, mother and grandmother, “Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praised her; Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.”

The family would like to thank the deacon body of First Baptist Church Tuscaloosa and the Second Hand Rose ministry for their diligent visitation, and also the nursing staff and care staff of The Crossings of Tuscaloosa. A memorial service will be held to celebrate Hilda's life on August 7, 2024 at Memory Chapel Funeral Home at 1:00 pm with visitation to proceed the service from 12:00 to 1:00pm. There will be a private family graveside service. Pallbearers include Drew Hall, Ben Hall, Brandon Hall, Ryan Falgout, Greg Kitchens, Steve Lindsey and Logan Hayes. Honorary pallbearers are Dr. John Summerford, and Dr. John Crew and nurses and care staff of Hospice of West Alabama. In lieu of flowers the family is requesting donations to be made in Mrs. Hall's memory to Hospice of West Alabama or Northwood Hills Baptist Church.
