A native to Ponca
City, Oklahoma, she was preceded in death by her husband Melvin Luther
Hall, and was the daughter of the late O.C. and Cecyle Trostle. She was
also preceded in death by her brothers, Lynne Dering Trostle and James
Robert Trostle and her youngest daughter, Ms. Carol Ann Hall.
Mrs. Hall was a
faithful member of the Pentecostal Holiness Church of Ponca City where
she served as Deacon and taught Sunday School and Children’s Church
until her health no longer allowed her to serve. She worked for 25 years
at the Conoco Oil Company where she retired in 1988. She gained most of
her joy from serving her community, tending her many flower gardens,
canning jams, jellies, and pickles and loving her many grand children,
great grandchildren and great-great grandchildren. She enjoyed listening
to Southern Gospel music, Jim Reeves, and John Denver and was an avid
bowler.
She was a devoted
Christian and family woman who gave unselfishly and unconditionally to
her friends and family. She set an example for everyone she knew and
witnessed God’s love to all she came in contact with so they could also
know “her Jesus”.
Some of her
favorite scriptures were John 3:16; “For God so loved the world that He
gave His only begotten son that whosoever believeth in Him should not
perish but have everlasting life” and Revelation 3:20, “Behold, I stand
at the door and knock; if any man hear my voice and open the door, I
will come in and sup with him and he will sup with me”.
Mrs. Hall is
survived by her sisters, Martha Rose and Nancy Lou, and her brother and
his wife Neal and Janice Trostle and her brother Charles Bruce. She is
also survived by her daughter Jean Tedford of Bella Vista, Arkansas, son
and daughter-in-law, Melvin Luther II and Pepi Hall of McMinnville, TN
and daughter and son-in-law Cecyle and Victor Haley of Norman, OK. She
is also survived by her eight grandchildren; Thea Rush, Kris Sherry,
Elizabeth Derryberry and Michael Derryberry, children of Jeanie; Melvin
Luther III and Christine Hall and Becky and Jason Baughman, children of
Melvin and Pepi; and Jennifer and Gabe Sevigny and Jeffrey and Lynda
Haley, children of Cecyle and Victor. She is also survived by great
grandchildren; Kerry Kirby, Paige Rush, Jessica Rush, Adena Sherry,
Derek Sherry, Lacey Derryberry, Autumn Derryberry, Melvin Luther Hall
IV,Katherine Hall, Kayla Hall, Grant Sevigny, Payton Sevigny, Sawyer
Haley, and Garret Haley. She also has two great-great grandchildren,
Matthew and Mackenzie.

Memorial Chapel. A celebration service will be held May 23 at 2pm at the

Melvin Hall II officiating. Burial will follow in the Longwood Cemetery
with Pallbearers: grandsons, Melvin Hall III, Jeffrey Haley, Michael

Flowers are

Mrs. Hall’s family
wishes to express their extreme gratitude to the staff of Good Shepherd

gave “the yodeling harmonica player”.
