When Hal decided to obtain his pilot's license I thought OMG. He had a real passion for this and often talked about it when he'd join Cathy & I for dinner at the Sunflower cafe or when he'd drop in for a visit. He always had an entertaining story of his latest experience and I sometimes thought he was looking for trouble. He loved flying and we loved he found something he enjoyed so much. Hal was a great friend and we will miss him.
