There is not enough room for me to share all my thoughts of this dear man. I will ask this question. How many of you have ever had a friend who Never said no? I did. In Patty's words "Hal Guy" was the very best friend anyone could have. So I will end this by saying thanks Hal. I miss you Buddy.
Hal was my Uncle. I remember visiting Hal and my Aunt Zona in california when I was just a child and he let me just sit and play around on his piano. I was very young and didn't know what I was doing but they never pushed me away. Because of that experience I have a Grand Piano in my living room today and play for my own pleasure only. I am the daughter of Delores Himmelsbach who is Zona's sister. Though my time with Uncle Hal was short, the special memories will remain with me forever....
I am Billy Fleming a cousin to Hal, Hal was very special to me for more than one reason but one of those reasons is Hal taught me how to play the organ and a very good teacher he was,He also taught my son Kenneth how to play the clarinet in lots of ways, So you see, Hal was special to us
He will be missed and loved for ever
Billy Fleming
