Jeffrey Hall, 49, of Raymond died unexpectedly at his home on Tuesday morning April 5. Jeffrey was the son of John and Marie Hall born February 7, 1973. He had been disabled for a number of years from an injury suffered at work. Prior to that, after graduation from high school he attended University of South Alabama where he majored in theater and stage production. He was very intelligent and creative. He loved woodworking, painting, sculpting and cooking. He could make a great dish from most anything. This served him well as he worked in multiple theaters across the country moving up as he went. He loved Mac-Hayden theater in Virginia, a theater in Birmingham, his stint in New York and his favorite theater in West Palm Beach Florida. He believed where there was a will there was a way and he showed this off by building amazing sets and doing things outside the box. It was always said that Jeffrey went to the beat of a different drummer. He loved poetry, books, educational TV. He loved Irish folk music, jazz and classical as well as some of what I call the wilder tunes. He was a wonderful daddy and son, a wonderful brother, uncle and friend. He loved his daughter Mackenzie with all his heart. She was his world. He also was a great animal lover and leaves behind his constant companion, T-cup, his cat who Mackenzie has adopted.

Jeffrey was preceded in death by his father John Hall and his brother Steve Hall. Left to grieve him is his daughter Mackenzie Hall and her special friend Peanut (AJ) McCain, his mother Marie Hall. His brother Ryan Hall. Sister-in-laws Nikki Hall and Melissa Hall. Special niece Zoey Hall, niece Brianna Hall, nephews Aiden Hall, Austin Hall and Casey Bulman as well as many wonderful Aunts, Uncles and Cousins. He also loved his great nephew and great niece Liam Hall and Rayni Hall.

Services for Jeffrey are on Saturday April 9 at Wright and Ferguson in Raymond. Visitation begins at 12 noon. The funeral service will be at 2pm with Bro. Ken Anderson officiating. Immediately afterward there will be a procession to Utica to the Robison Cemetery where he will be buried next to his father.

We miss him terribly already. He leaves an empty spot in our hearts. I pray the Lord will bless and keep us strong during this hard time.
