Huger Tudor Hall

Huger “Tudor” Hall III, a resident of Worthington, Ohio, was born December 6, 1934, in Augusta, Georgia, and passed away December 8, 2009, in Columbus, Ohio at the age of 75. He is survived by his wife, Kathleen; his daughter, Alicia Sorenson, and granddaughter, Ainsley, both of Saint Petersburg, Florida; his son, Wesley Lyle, of Atlanta, Georgia; his stepson, Darek Nalle, of Moscow, Idaho; and his sister, Addison Gobhai, of Watertown, Massachusetts. He was the son of Dr. Huger Tudor Hall II and Jessie Addison Hall, both deceased, of Aiken, South Carolina. Tudor graduated from Christ School in Arden, North Carolina, where he excelled in all sports and sang in the choir. He attended Washington and Lee University in Lexington, Virginia, where he was the captain of the football team, and was drafted by the Cleveland Browns as a fullback until a shoulder injury forced him to retire. He served for two years in the US Army in Korea and subsequently completed his degree at the University of South Carolina. Tudor was a person of many talents and a life-long learner who studied history, science and music, particularly enjoying playing the classical guitar. He became an accomplished pilot which served him well with Cessna Aircraft Corporation, for whom he was employed by Cessna Finance Corporation until his retirement. He was an avid low-handicap golfer and was on the links as often as the weather permitted. More recently, he became a talented woodworker, computer enthusiast, recreational genealogist and motorcycle buff. Tudor was devoted to his family and friends and was a loving and supportive husband, father, grandfather and friend whose zest for life and sense of humor will be missed by all. A memorial service will be held at 10:30 on Tuesday, December 15, 2009, at Saint John's Episcopal Church, located at 700 High Street, Worthington, Ohio. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that contributions be made in Tudor’s name to Christ School. Arrangements by RUTHERFORD-CORBIN FUNERAL HOME, 614-885-4006.
