Dennis Jackson Hall, retired university land surveyor in the Division of Facilities passed away on Sunday, Oct. 19. Hall was 68 years old.
He is predeceased by his parents, Conley Jackson and Pauline Farmer Hall, his grandparents, and many members of his extended family.
Hall worked in the Division of Facilities for 12 years between 2006 and 2018. As a land surveyor, he loved the outdoors. He also liked fishing, riding his motorcycle, and raising dogs before his health declined. In his later years, his grandchildren became the center of his world, next to his wife and his Lord.

He also leaves behind a special daughter-in-law, Teresa Parker Hall, and her fiancé, Robert Jording; five grandchildren — Lexi, Bobby, Kadance, Gage and Makenna; his sister, Patricia Hall Lineberry, and her husband, Darrell; his mother-in-law, Reba Harrell; sisters-in-law Melissa Harrell Jackson and husband Rusty, Tara Harrell Woodyard and husband Buddy, and Amanda Harrell Brown and husband Ervie; along with numerous nieces and nephews, aunts and uncles, and lifelong friend Rick Casey.
