Hall, Thomas Roger "Pops"

Age 76, passed away on March 3, 2019 after a long battle of illness. Throughout his life, he met life with adversities that were faced with humor and positive attitude. Tom will be remembered as a "jokester" and for the great love of his family.

He was born in Livingston, TN on March 22, 1943, raised in Dayton, OH since age 4 and graduated from Stivers High School in 1961. He continued his education in Louisville, KY. Tom was employed at Inland-General Motors at age 18 where he studied and worked himself up to an electrician. He retired after 37 years of service in 1998 after a major stroke.

Tom was a lifelong member of the Church of Christ.

Tom married his childhood sweetheart, Betty (Swift) in 1964 and was married for 54 years. They were blessed with 3 sons: Tommy, Kenny and Terry; 5 wonderful grandchildren: Brandon, Claire, Ryan, Allie and Jordan. Not 3 daughters-in-law but 3 daughters: Mandy, Laura and Julia.

Tom is preceded in death by his parents Roger and Vechil (Annie) Hall; his first born son, Tommy R.J. Hall; special aunt, Dee (Mary Goslin), aunt Valley Carver; special cousins Madelyn (Goslin) Harris and Don Savage.
