Rennhack:
I worked with Hal at Battelle.  He will be missed.

Haz-Mater:
I worked with Hal at battelle also.  He was a good person and great HP.  We had some great memories playing softball and talking about baseball.  Hall has had to suffer for a long time fighting his bout with cancer, but he will not have to fight anymore more.  I feel that he is in a better place.  Maybe his Boston Red Sox will win the World Series this year.... just for him.  Best wishes to his family.  He will be missed.

Laning:
I also worked with Hal at Battelle. Battelle was that once in a career project (if you're lucky) where everything just clicks due to having great people everywhere you looked. Hal Stoddard most certainly qualified as Great People. He was a true gentleman, devoted husband and father; and a loyal friend.  

I'm happy and proud to have called him my friend.

vikingfan:
I am sorry to hear of hal's passing. Having worked with hal at battelle for a number of years I will miss his insight to the business and his opinions on the management and also what he was thinking of his beloved red sox !! may all of our prayers go out to hal's surviving family members. he'll surely be missed.


god bless
