Lexie Lucille Hall

Memorial services for Lexie Lucille Hall, 96, of Lufkin will be held Thursday, January 19, 2017 at 1:30 p.m. in the PineCrest Retirement Community Chapel with Pastor Mark Newton officiating.

Mrs. Hall was born January 13, 1920 in Hemphill, Texas and passed away Saturday, January 7, 2017 in Lufkin, Texas.

Mrs. Hall graduated as Valedictorian of Pineland High School in 1938 and married Murray Martin Hall in September of that year. In 1940, they moved to Lufkin.

Mrs. Hall devoted her life to her husband and children and to being a homemaker. She excelled in all the domestic arts. A wonderful cook and seamstress, she kept an immaculate house. Working in her garden was one of her greatest pleasures as evidenced in her beautiful yard and flower garden.

She faithfully attended Lufkin’s First Baptist Church, where she served in several volunteer capacities over the years.

The Cut-N-Grow Garden Club was one of her favorite activities and, while a member, she hosted many meetings and won several flower arranging competitions. She was also a member of the Daughters of the Republic of Texas and the Genealogy Club.

Mrs. Hall was an amazing woman of great strength, courage, determination and faith. She never quit striving, even in the face of overwhelming obstacles. She is deeply loved and will be greatly missed.

Mrs. Hall was preceded in death by her parents, Charlie and Ethel Travis McDonald; her husband, Murray Martin Hall; and her sister and brother-in-law, Lois and Jack Lynch.

She is survived by her daughter, Marlea Lamprea (German) of San Antonio; her son, Milton Hall (Lily) of Katy; her niece, Laura McQuerry (Mike) of Okahoma City, Oklahoma; as well as numerous cousins.

Expressions of sympathy in Mrs. Hall’s memory may be made to First Baptist Church Lufkin, 106 E. Bremond Avenue, Lufkin, Texas 75901, or to a charity of your choice.
