Robert Egerton Hall Jr., 79, passed away peacefully on September 16, 2024. He was born in Guyana, South America, on January 15, 1945; the cherished fourth child and sole son of the late Robert Egerton Hall Sr. and Walterine Fraser-Hall.
Robert led a life beyond what many could imagine, touching countless lives along the way. He embodied kindness, consideration, and sincerity like no other. As a young man, he attended Queenstown RC School and the Guyanese College of Modern Education. Later, he became a teacher at Agricola Methodist Primary School and then a nurse at Georgetown Public Hospital, a testament to his selfless service. As a teacher, his drive was solely to uplift others. As a nurse, he consistently provided remarkable and attentive care, as recounted by a previous patient of his.
During his nursing tenure, Robert became a member of the Unification Church and a founding member of the Unified Family Singers in Guyana. His singing career also extended into the New Hope Singers International and the Boricua College Chorus, to name a few. After moving to Manhattan, New York, he was employed as an Administrative Assistant at Noticias del Mundo.
On July 1, 1982, Robert was blessed in union to his loving wife Amanda by Reverend and Mrs. Moon at Madison Square Garden. They then had a son, Christopher Hall.
Today, Robert is celebrated as an accomplished singer and composer, a talent that emerged in his youth. His latest role was as the Conductor and Director of the Sound of Music choir of the Manhattan Family Church.
Robert was predeceased by his parents Robert E. Hall Snr. and Walterine Fraser-Hall; sister Norma Hall-Ashford; brothers-in-law Robert Ashford, Stanley Harper, Oswald Abrams, and nephews Garry Elliott and Terell Spruill-Hall.
His memories will live on through: his loving wife Amanda Hall and devoted son Christopher Hall; his siblings Sherry Moyce, Lucille Harper, Joan Abrams, Moreen McLennan, Yvonne Prescott (Ronald Snr.), and Cheryl Hall; his nieces and nephews Ronda Nunes (Ricky Snr.), Nicky Pobee Mensah, Scott Spruill Hall, Diann Gerson, Wayne Moyce, Julie Hester, Lydia Kate Hussey (Oliver), Gail Elliott, Leah Canton (Jeffrey), Llouana Harper-Louis (Richard), André Abrams (Katinea Miller), Alexis Abrams (Morris Blake), Antón Abrams, Brian McLennan Jnr., Sophia McLennan, Roseanne McLennan, Sharon Prescott, Ronald Prescott Jnr. (Carrie), Monique Marshall, Douglas Watson Jnr., his god-children Alyssa Blake and others, in addition to his many great nieces and nephews; great, great nieces and nephews.
