Known to friends as "Billy," he had deep roots in Skyway and King County, Washington. He went to Garfield High School and graduated from Washington State University before a long and distinguished Marine career that ended Saturday.


A Marine Corps representative says Hall was on patrol in Fallujah when his vehicle was hit by an improvised explosive device, or IED.
"He was very proud to be a Marine," said Sharron McMullin, his cousin. "He ate, lived and breathed the Marine Corps; he was even excited about going to serve in Iraq."


His family says the married father of four was on his third tour in Iraq.
"We've suffered a great loss, but we are so proud of him, we have a lot of fond memories, he really left a legacy," McMullin said.


He enrolled in the Reserve Officers' Training Corps while studying at WSU and served in the Marines for 15 years.


He leaves behind a wife, two daughters and two stepsons. A public memorial service is planned for 11 a.m. April 5 at the Tabernacle Missionary Baptist Church, 2801 S. Jackson Street in Seattle, Washington.


The following week, Hall will be laid to rest at Arlington National Cemetery.
