Darrell Wayne Hall

Darrell Wayne Hall, 60, 5107 Unicoi Drive, Unicoi, passed away unexpectedly Wednesday, November 19, 2014 in the Johnson City Medical Center. He was a native of Carter County and a son of the late Leroy and Tempia Hodge Hall. Darrell "Wayne" was a pipefitter and had worked in construction for many years. He attended the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ in Bakersville, NC and Zion Baptist Church in Elizabethton. Darrell "Wayne" was a loving family man, who made a living as a craftsman and passed those traits onto his sons. He enjoyed studying history and spent his time fishing, hunting, enjoying the lake, and recently traveling with his wife and friend, Madge. His favorite past-time was playing music and singing; he was a musical inspiration and shared his talents with many. Someday, we will see those rough, calloused, metal-working fingers strum a guitar again. May you smile like never before and sing for your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! In addition to his parents he was preceded in death by a brother-in-law, Sherman Thomas Leonard. Survivors include his loving wife, Madge Cook Hall of the home; three sons, Anthony Wayne Hall and wife, Kim of Johnson City, Donnie Kyle Hall and wife, Kim of Jonesborough and Ronnie Lee Hall and wife, Joy of Elizabethton; two step-sons, Richard Ray and wife, Sheila of Knoxville and Kevin Ray of Kingsport; two sisters, Brenda Leonard and Wilma Dugger and husband, Alfred all of Johnson City; three brothers, Mike Hall and wife, Joann of Kingsport, Bruce Hall and wife, Sharon of Johnson City and Steve Hall and wife, Kelly of Murfreesboro; five grandchildren, Chasity, Keelie, Blake, Forrest and Corteney Hall; two great-granddaughters, Amzie Jordan Hackney and Ember Mae Few; very special friends, Burl Mast, Billy Lane, Paul and Lori Wise; also a host of friends and many nieces, nephews, cousins, uncles and aunts.
