Thomas W. Hall, age 83 of Fairfield, Ohio and formerly of West Harrison, died Sunday, October 31, 2021 at his residence in Fairfield surrounded by family.

Born May 17, 1938 in Indianapolis, he was one of four children born to the late George Wesley and Julia (Larner) Hall. He was united in marriage in 1960 to the former Nancy Lu Rieber, and she preceded him in death August 24, 2019.

Tom was a member of the former Holy Guardian Angels Parish in Cedar Grove, where he had served on Parish Council, the Knights of Columbus, as well as the Ohio Valley Austin Healey Club. In his leisure time, he enjoyed landscaping and gardening, and classic car shows.

Survivors include four children, Juliann (Rob) King of Fairfield, Ohio, Mark Hall of Batavia, Ohio, Marie (David) Saylor and Randy Hall both of Western Hills, Ohio; two sisters, Sharon Sommerville and Linda Connor, both of Indianapolis; a brother, Dennis Hall of Jacksonville, Florida; seven grandchildren, Wesley King, Joseph King, Alexandra Hall, Stephanie Hall, Jack Hall, Carlyann Hall, and Steven Hall.

Thomas W. Hall was a wonderful, kind, man who went out of his way to make friends with anyone that he had met in his life. Tom was a loving son, father, grandfather, and friend who loved everyone deeply. He was a free spirit who enjoyed the little things in life, such as hunting, his nightly watches of Jeopardy, and spending time with his family. He was also a member and had a deep dedication to the Austin Healey Club. Tom once said, “There is nothing more freeing than taking a ride through the country on a nice sunny day.” Tom was greatly loved by so many in his life-time and could always make someone laugh with his hilarious dad jokes, knowing that there was comfort and warmth behind them. Tom also enjoyed spending time with his seven grandchildren and loved teaching them about the wonders of fishing, shooting, how to change the oil on a vehicle, and how a golf cart works.

If you knew Tom, you'd know that the love of his life Nancy passed two years ago and in his final wishes he longed to be with her; we think now he is resting on a bench somewhere splitting that vanilla ice cream cone with his love and enjoying every single second of it. Tom Hall, you will always be remembered and never forgotten, rest easy friend.

Family and friends may visit from 11:00 till noon on Wednesday, November 3, 2021 at Holy Guardian Angels Oratory, 405 U.S. Highway 52, Cedar Grove, Indiana.

Rev. Vincent Lampert will officiate the Mass of Christian Burial at noon, Wednesday, November 3, 2021 at Holy Guardian Angels Oratory in Cedar Grove. Burial will follow in Holy Guardian Angels Cemetery in Cedar Grove.
Memorial contributions may be directed to the American Cancer Society. The staff of Phillips & Meyers Funeral Home are honored to serve the Hall family, to sign the online guest book or send personal condolences, please visit www.phillipmeyers.com
