Memorial services for Lexie Lucille Hall, 96, of Lufkin will be held Thursday, January 19, 2017 at 1:30 p.m. in the PineCrest Retirement Community Chapel with Pastor Mark Newton officiating.
Mrs. Hall was born January 13, 1920 in Hemphill, Texas and passed away Saturday, January 7, 2017 in Lufkin, Texas.
Mrs. Hall graduated as Valedictorian of Pineland High School in 1938 and married Murray Martin Hall in September of that year. In 1940, they moved to Lufkin.
Mrs. Hall devoted her life to her husband and children and to being a homemaker. She excelled in all the domestic arts. A wonderful cook and seamstress, she kept an immaculate house. Working in her garden was one of her greatest pleasures as evidenced in her beautiful yard and flower garden.
She faithfully attended Lufkin's First Baptist Church, where she served in several volunteer capacities over the years.
The Cut-N-Grow Garden Club was one of her favorite activities and, while a member, she hosted many meetings and won several flower arranging competitions. She was also a member of the Daughters of the Republic of Texas and the Genealogy Club.
Mrs. Hall was an amazing woman of great strength, courage, determination and faith. She never quit striving, even in the face of overwhelming obstacles. She is deeply loved and will be greatly missed.
Mrs. Hall was preceded in death by her parents, Charlie and Ethel Travis McDonald; her husband, Murray Martin Hall; and her sister and brother-in-law, Lois and Jack Lynch.
She is survived by her daughter, Marlea Lamprea (German) of San Antonio; her son, Milton Hall (Lily) of Katy; her niece, Laura McQuerry (Mike) of Okahoma City, Oklahoma; as well as numerous cousins.
Expressions of sympathy in Mrs. Hall's memory may be made to First Baptist Church Lufkin, 106 E. Bremond Avenue, Lufkin, Texas 75901, or to a charity of your choice.

His Texas Death Certificate shows that he was a son of Doctor T J McFarland (born Alabama) and Carrie Jayne (born in Austin, Texas). The informant was his wife, Irma. He was shown as a Stationary Salesman.
Obituary, copied from the FindAGrave memorial page created by Jan Wukasch Pelosi, and maintained by Vicki Cooper:
Former State Representative Marion Minter McFarland of Brewster County, Texas, after romping around on the open range for fifty-eight years, has been corralled.
This amazing man was born in war ravaged Brandon, Mississippi, following the Civil War - he was known to quip, "There's nothing civil about war." His loving and adoring parents were Thomas Jefferson McFarland, a surgical physician in the Confederate Army, and well-educated artist and musician, Caroline Pauline Jayne McFarland.
When Marion was three, the McFarlands left Mississippi for Texas and lived in several towns before settling in Indianola. There his father practiced medicine and Marion attended public school, completing his education at Baylor University in Waco, Texas.
It's believed he was visiting Indianola during the storm of 1886 at which time the town was washed away. His family was certainly there, left and settled in Port Lavaca, Texas. Later Marion founded the Indianola Association - an organization devoted to the memory of the once prosperous seaport town. He was its first president and later elected president for life.
After college, Marion moved to Groesbeck, Limestone County Texas to be near his grandmother, Juliet Jayne and her son, Amos. While there, much of the progress of the town in the eighties may be attributed to him. He was editor and publisher of the Limestone, "New Era". He organized a national bank, organized a board of trade, started the first good roads movement in the county "and generally revolutionized things." At the time he left in 1889, he was a city alderman, city secretary, secretary of the board of trade, and husband of Katherine "Kate" Risien whom he married Dec. 10, 1889.
In 1890, Marion established the Beeville Picayune newspaper in Beeville, Texas.
From that point, Victoria, Texas, was their home and Marion was again a newspaper man having edited The Victoria Daily Times, and where he was elected to the State House of Representatives from Brewster County.
For forty-five years he was a traveling salesman for several lithograph and stationery companies in which he owned interest.
In 1936, at the age of seventy he died in a San Antonio, Texas, hospital and removed to Austin, where "the funeral home was a veritable bower of beautiful floral arrangements, coming from over the state," a testimonial of respect and esteem to the former representative, business and newspaper man.
