NC’s gospel music community mourns the passing of Edward “Ed” William Hall, Jr., veteran gospel singer and former radio announcer for Raleigh’s WSHA radio station.  Hall died Monday, March 14, at the age of 86.

I first experienced Hall’s traditional gospel style and engaging personality in the 1980s, during his weekly television appearances with the Wesleyan TV Choir on WRAL’s Spiritual Awakening gospel music program.  Hall was a frequent featured soloist with the choir, led by Sandra Byrd, who also served as the show’s host.  In addition, Hall sang with the Sensational Evening Five for a number of years.

GMF extends sincerest condolences to Brother Hall’s family and friends.
