Stuart "Stu" Hall

Stuart “Stu” Hall, 79, passed away peacefully at his home on April 5, 2023.

Stu was born on April 1, 1944, in Waterloo, Iowa to Stanley and Ruby (Richmond) Hall. He graduated from Des Moines Technical High School in 1962. Stu was a Seabee in the United States Navy and proudly served two tours in Vietnam. He was a Union Sheet Metal Worker for Local #45 and later a mail handler for the United States Post Office. Stu was a member of the VFW, American Legion, and AmVets.

He loved being outdoors, fishing, and working in his yard. Stu enjoyed listening to Country Western music and watching Gunsmoke. When his children were young, he was known as “The Fixer”. Stu could fix whatever was broken, bikes and cars were two of his specialties. He always made time for his boys to play catch or throw the football, even after a hard day’s work. Stu was a dedicated Green Bay Packers fan. He was a jokester and was always smiling. Stu will be fondly remembered for his unassuming, larger-than-life personality.

Stu is survived by his wife of 52 years, Anna; brother, Kevin (Sue) Hall; aunt, Colleen Kacher; sons, Ryan (Keri) Hall and Chad (Shanna) Hall; daughter, Shannon (Glen) Haus; grandchildren, Trevor (Catherine) Hall, Amber (Andrew) Matney, Lauren (Jon) James, Brittany Harper, Victoria (Jeffrey) Greear, Amber Haus, Glenn Haus, Jr., and Dakota (Steve) Wicks; four great-grandchildren; numerous cousins, nieces, and nephews; lifelong friend, Jim Bass and his wife Christy and many other beloved friends; as well as a host of extended family.
