YARMOUTH, Me. – Our beloved father, George Hall, passed away peacefully August 16, at the age of 89. He resided in Yarmouth, Me., during the last months of his life. His beloved wife, Charlotte, passed away in 2016. His four children survive George: Peter Hall (Cumberland, Me.), Tim Hall (Des Moines, Iowa), Yvette Hall-Swain (Brockton, Mass.), and Steve Hall (Westford, Mass.). George leaves behind 12 grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren.

George was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather as well as an inspiration to his family throughout his life. He will be greatly missed. George was born 1935 and grew up in Massachusetts in his early years before living in Tallahassee, Fla. He graduated from Georgia Tech with a degree in electrical engineering and later earned a Master’s Degree from Northeastern University.

He spent his entire career at Raytheon, working in Massachusetts and across the world. George was an accomplished sailor, and for decades George took his family on adventures along the coast of Maine. He contributed to many community activities, enriching the lives of many as a leader, mentor, coach and friend. George was a Master’s Nordic ski champion, skied for most of his life, and lived on Craftsbury Common, Vt., from 1994 to 2024. Prior to Vermont, George lived in Bolton, Mass., from 1971 to 1994.

Those who were fortunate to know him, especially his family, will carry his memory in their hearts. George made life brighter and better for everyone who knew him, and his legacy will continue to inspire generations to come. At George’s request, there will be no services.
