David Sydney Hale November 7, 1944 - December 26, 2014

Brian's best friend's father, David 'Doc' Hale, passed away December 26th. He's left us to be with his beautiful bride, Laney, which makes things bearable, but certainly not easy. This man will be missed beyond measure. As the priest said, 'He was an amazing son, uncle, cousin, grandfather, father, friend, colleague, and teacher.' We were just in Dallas for his surprise 70th birthday party November 17th and we will forever be grateful for that trip because he was smiling, happy, and content. Just how I want to remember our Doc. His sons Mike and David do not have parents but they have a solid family and loving friends who will wrap their arms around them forever. A life cut too short but never ever forgotten. We will always love you Doc. Give Laney a big kiss for us!!!

I don't have any close ups of him but do have some of him surprised out of his mind at the birthday party! :)
























Cheers,
