Passed on: May 31st, 2016
We regret to announce the sudden passing of Joseph A. Hall, 68, on Tuesday, May 31, 2016, at the Cape Breton Regional Hospital.
Joe Hall, as he was affectionately known to all, was born in Sydney Mines on Nov. 15, 1947. He was the son of Mary (Beaton) Hall Day, and the late Archibald Hall.
Joe worked for many years for Devco, until his retirement. He played ball and bowled when he was able. He was very well known in the community, and mowed many lawns over the years. Joe enjoyed good food, laughs with his buddies, and driving around. He adored his fur baby, Gina.
Joe’s family would like to thank his neighbours and friends who were always so good to him.
Joe leaves behind to mourn his mother Mary, special friend Linn Evraire, brothers Murray, Glen, Donnie, Vincent and George, and sisters Rodina Bond, Frances Russell, and Valarie Parks. Joe also leaves behind many nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts and uncles, and many friends.
Besides his father Archie, Joe was predeceased by his brother, Laurence and niece, Tracey Bond.
There will be no visitation. Cremation has taken place under the care and direction of J. M. Jobes Funeral Home, Sydney Mines. A graveside memorial service will take place on Monday, June 6, 2016, at 11 a.m. in St. Joseph Cemetery, Sydney Mines, with Deacon Greg Murphy officiating. Everyone is welcome to attend. A reception will follow in Holy Family Parish Hall.
Donations in Joe’s memory may be made to the SPCA. Words of comfort may be forwarded to the family at www.jmjobesfuneralhome.com.
