Kenneth Hall, 70 of Irasburg passed onto his heavenly home with Jesus on November 5, 2023 after a long battle with cancer.  He was born on June 21, 1953 to Collins Hall and Ruth Nault who predeceased him.  Ken leaves a wife Beverley of Irasburg, his daughters Laurie Hall and partner Chad Fontaine of Orleans and Julie Gustin and husband Derek of Newport Center.  He leaves the following grandchildren Ivan Lanoue and partner Cassie Vanasse, of Orleans, Cam Gustin and Stella Gustin, of Newport Center, plus great-granddaughter Hazeleigh Lanoue of Orleans and his best friend and companion Lexi his dog.

He was predeceased by brothers Daniel Hall and Robert Hall, and sister Mary Whitcomb.  Surviving siblings are Nancy Sheltra of Derby, Larry Hall and wife Vicki, Shirley McCormick and husband Ramon, Joanne Cleveland and husband Richard, all of Irasburg, Judy Rotunno, of Burlington, James Hall, of Irasburg, and Tammy Gagnon and husband Sylvain of Orleans, brother-in-law Ken Royer and wife Claire of North Carolina, sister-in-Heidi Royer of Hyde Park, and sister-in-law Theresa Perrault and husband Bruno of Newport Center, plus many nieces and nephews.

Ken loved the outdoors. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, riding his four-wheeler, gardening, and even racing at Riverside Speedway in Groveton, NH. His work career kept him outside. He had a work ethic that brought him many accomplishments. He worked for Aroute Brothers drilling the ledges in the development of I91 in 1973, repairing snow machines at Hall's Snowmobile Repair in Irasburg, running dozer for Jean Meunier of Westfield, running compactor and being an auto mechanic for Charlie Nadeau, operating excavator for Dubois Construction out of Montpelier, Scotts Construction out of Newport, and Casella Construction out of Mendon, VT.  His skill with the excavator was one to admire.  He also tried logging with his own skidder and operating a shearer/fellow buncher for Brian Lafoe of Orleans.  When he had completed his day of work his machine was cleaned and ready for the next work day.  His love of the outdoors whether for recreation or working was where he wanted to be.  He had a great ability for mechanic work whether it be a dozer, excavator, automobile, lawn mower, chainsaw, or a four-wheeler he always had it working again.  He was always willing to offer a helping hand to his children and others.

But his greatest love of all was his daughters, his grandchildren, his great-granddaughter, his daughters' husband/partner, and his wife. Whether it be spending time with all of them during holiday meals, socializing, or helping them with projects.  It was his greatest enjoyment and most fulfilling. He was very proud of his daughters. He instilled a great work ethic in them and to have respect for yourself and others.  He taught them the value of working hard for what you accomplished in life and the importance of helping others. Another joy was watching his grandchildren's sports and recreational activities like racing a four-wheeler, taking them hunting and fishing, watching soccer games, (especially the goalie 99), his granddaughter's ability of drawing and her fearless adventures.  It is what he loved the most being with family.

He will be greatly missed and loved.  He left a legacy that is much needed in today's world.  His children will carry this on to their children.

There will be no public service.  A private service will be held at the convenience of the family.  Any donations may be made to VNA /Hospice in Newport VT in his memory.
