Richard Alan Hall, better known as Rick, passed from this life on April 28, 2026 at his home. Rick was born on October 26, 1960 to proud parents Robert (Bob) and Jean Hall in Chula Vista, California. 

After serving in the military, Bob and family moved back to Scott County and bought a farm in Cauthron, Arkansas. This farm is where Rick grew up and learned from his parents that hard work, honest values and love would be his way of life. 

Rick’s family moved to Waldron when he was sixteen and he loved it. Rick went to school in Waldron from first grade to graduation. He loved playing basketball, baseball and softball along side his buddies.Upon graduating, Rick went on to college where he worked to become a master electrician. This college helped him get the job at Arkansas Nuclear One Power Plant in Russellville Arkansas. 

The move to Russellville led to marriage and children Kyle and Christopher Hall. Rick was very involved with both boys and enjoyed going to all of their sport activities and school functions. He also enjoyed taking the boys camping and hunting with some of his best friends Roy Pyle and Rick Deeds. Rick also played on a softball league during the summers as well as volleyball. 

Rick also loved the outdoors which led him to his dream to move back to Scott County and buy some land at Cauthron which is where he spent his retirement years. Rick found the place that made him the happiest along with his dogs Buck, Ella, Rosie and Kitty.

Rick leaves behind to cherish his memory, his children: Kyle Alan Hall and Christopher Ryan Hall both of Waldron, Arkansas. Rick will be missed by all that knew him and the many whose lives he impacted including friends, neighbors and loved ones.

Rick was preceded in death by his loving parents, Robert and Jean Hall.
