Lyda G. (Salmons) Hall

Lyda G. Hall, 77, Columbus, Ohio, passed away Monday, August 15, 2016. She was born September 28, 1938 in Aflex, Kentucky, daughter of the late Gaylord and Pauline Salmons. She was a 1958 graduate of Rio Grande High School and retired from Grant Medical Center, Columbus, Ohio in 2011 where she worked as a nursing assistant. A devoted grandmother who cared for her great-grandson, "Joshy", while his mother worked, she loved with everything she had and her gentle smile and sweet giggle will be dearly missed. She lived in several cities in Ohio – yet, Gallia County is where she called home.

Lyda is survived by her daughter, Michelle (Randy) Spence, Groveport, Ohio; granddaughter, Andrea Paige (Joshua) Mervis, Columbus, Ohio; great-grandson, Joshua Allen "Joshy" Mervis; seven sisters: Cordie Arnett, Canal Winchester, Ohio; Hazel Skidmore, Columbus, Ohio; Daisy Gierke, Columbus, Ohio; Gladys Salmons, Columbus, Ohio; Eleanor (David) Hart, Powell, Ohio; Linda (Bill) Ratliff, Vinton, Ohio and Patricia Arnett, Columbus, Ohio; two brothers: Alvis Salmons, Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio and Zat Salmons, Gallipolis, Ohio as well as many nieces, nephews and extended family members.

In addition to her parents, Lyda was preceded in death by an infant sister, Lucinda Salmons and nephew, Brian Ray Salmons.

A Private Family Interment will be conducted at the convenience of the family in Tyn Rhos Cemetery, Thurman, Ohio Saturday, September 3, 2016. The McCoy-Moore Funeral Home, Vinton Chapel is honored to serve the Hall family.
