    Betty Claire Hall, a resident of El Sobrante for 75 years died August 24, 2013. She was 89 years old. The only daughter of William Hugh and Lillian Bernadette (Picard) Jones, she was born in Richmond December 23, 1923. She graduated from Richmond High School in 1942. Her father passed while she was still in school and her mother found work at the Shipyard cafeteria during the war but times were still very tough for them.

Betty held only one job for 40 years at the Chevron Refinery, Richmond, retiring in 1980 together with her loving husband Ralph Hall who passed in 2001. They were married for 36 years.

A founding member of St. Callistus Catholic Church, Betty was a faithful member in various organizations throughout the years; The Ladies Guild, Serra Club, St.Vincent de Paul's and the YLI. She was a faithful 49er follower for many years and enjoyed going to games at Kezar Stadium. After retiring from Chevron, Betty and Ralph traveled around the country and enjoyed spending time with their grandchildren. The last few years she began watching the San Francisco Giants games on TV and we all enjoyed her enthusiasm. She was a strong minded woman who worked hard and enjoyed life simply.
