Mr. Hale started and ran a successful nursery business and sold flowers at the Pence Springs area flea market. He loved riding ATV’s with his friends through old coal mining camps, and enjoyed working with his flowers, bird watching, and feeding wildlife. He loved his family, and he loved spending time outdoors target practicing, hunting, and fishing, but sometimes one could find him playing a friendly game of pool in his workshop.
Mr. Hale will be sadly missed by all who knew and loved him.
