Don Hershall Hall

Mr. Don Hershall Hall, age 45, of Cumming Georgia died Thursday, September 13, 2012. Don was born in Oklahoma and lived in over 10 states before settling in Cumming, GA. He graduated in the top ten of his class at Prattville High School in 1985 and went on to receive honors as a Cum Laude graduate in the School of Engineering at Auburn University in Alabama in 1990. Don lived with his beloved wife of 14 years, Gennett, and his two beloved daughters, Abby 11 and Allie 8, on a wooded acreage in Cumming, GA. His first passion and priority in life was his family. Spending time with his family traveling the world, skiing down mountains or curled up on the couch watching movies were the happiest moments of his life. Don enjoyed a very successful career as an Internet Software Security Engineer which ultimately led to his position as an Executive for IBM. His work with IBM took him all over the world from India, to Australia, to Europe on a regular basis. When not traveling the world or spending precious time with family, Don was the ultimate pursuer of his dreams. Anything he tried, he put his whole heart into. And in the last decade, he pursued his passion for flight. He quickly went from Private Pilot, to Instrument Rated to building and maintaining his own airplane.
