It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Hal Halladay on June 12, 2007.

 

Beloved soul-mate of Margaret, and much loved dad to Daphne. Predeceased by his parents William and Hazel, his brothers Leslie and John and his wives Joan and Muriel.

 

Born in Kindersley, Saskatchewan, Hal had a distinguished career in the RCAF and Federal Civil Service, both in Canada and internationally. Wherever he went, and whatever he did, he made a difference. He will be greatly missed and fondly remembered by many.   (From the Vancouver Sun)

 

    ... Daphne managed to speak elegantly from the heart during the memorial service, of Hal's as a father, a military aviator, an engineer and a man - in the memorial program Daphne wrote "Wherever Hal went and whatever he did. he made a difference"

    - I told Daphne that these words about her father were absolutely perfect and would strike a chord among all of us who worked with Hal over the years  ( John Quigley )

 

In 1969, Hal was Director for the Pacific region .
