On Wednesday, March 15, 2023, Kenneth R. Hall “Gipper” passed away as a result of a motorcycle accident on his way home from classes. His journey began in Millville Hospital, Millville New Jersey on September 11, 1970. He was born to parents, Maryanne, and Roger Hall, and had an older brother Mark. The family relocated to Palm Beach County, Florida when Gipper was 6 years old. He attended North Grade, Berkshire, Jeff Davis and finally graduated from Forest Hill High School in 1988.
Throughout his youth he was always involved in sports. Starting at age 7 he began his football career in local youth programs. That ended with a neck injury at the age of 16 during a football game at Lake Lytle. He also was active in band (drums), baseball and summer basketball. By age 11 he started BMX racing and did well, receiving many trophies. His start with motorbikes was when he was 4 and his feet barely reached the ground. He, his dad, and brother Mark enjoyed riding dirt bikes in the woods here in Florida. His father died on a motorcycle on his way to work in 1992 and Gipper rode in a race at Daytona Speedway in 1993 in his honor.
His many travels and experiences have brought him to have many caring, understanding friends over the years. And more recently, he has enjoyed attending P.B.S.C., honor student and on the Dean’s list. He was so proud, looking forward to receiving his A.A. and A.S. degrees this August. He was a significant help, coaching many of his fellow students as they struggled and was grateful for the help he got in return.
He leaves behind his mother and stepfather, Maryanne and Joseph Adornetto, his brother and stepsister, Mark (Marialena) and Stefani (Frank) and two adult children. There are numerous Aunts, Uncles and over 20 cousins of the maternal McLaughlin Clan.
A celebration of Life will be held at the Dorsey Funeral Home, 3041 Kirk Road, Lake Worth, FL 33461 on Friday, April 14th, 2023, from 3PM to 6PM with services at 5PM.
In lieu of flowers, please donate to a charity of your choice, NAMI, or the Hanley Center.
