Eugenia Hall
Eugenia Hall, 87, of Breckenridge, passed away on Saturday, December 26, 2020. Her funeral service will begin at 1:00 p.m. on Tuesday, January 5, 2021, in the Melton-Kitchens Chapel of Memories with David Ferguson officiating. Her interment will follow at the South Prairie Cemetery.
Eugenia Lee Power was born on March 10, 1933, in Breckenridge, Texas, to parents John Edward and Tommy Jewell (Hefner) Power. Eugenia graduated from Breckinridge High School then attended North Texas State University. She then married A. Bernard Robertson. While married to Bernard, she helped him complete his Master’s in Mechanical Engineering at Texas A&M. They lived in Albuquerque for several years but later returned to Texas where she began her career as a Geological Technician with Geomap and later Triton Oil & Gas.
Her second marriage to James Hall brought her back to Breckenridge. She loved owning land and keeping her small herd of cattle. This year she finally established a home on the Hefner family farm where she was born.
Eugenia was active with the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), Daughters of the Republic of Texas (DRT), and St. Paul United Methodist Church.
She loved to sit on the deck in the mornings and watch the morning star and the sunrise. In the evenings, it was stargazing and listening to the coyote howls. She was feisty, strong, and totally unique… and she will be greatly missed by all who loved her.
Eugenia was preceded in death by her parents, John Edward and Tommy Jewell Power; her brothers, Dan and Thomas Scott; her first husband, Bernard Robertson; her second husband, Otto James Hall; and her first great-grand baby, Jackson Ivey.
Eugenia is survived by her sister, Judy Power Clark; her son and daughter-in-law, Robbie and Holly; her daughter and son-in-law, Suzan and Glenn; granddaughters, Carrie and husband James Ivey, and Lexi and husband Cole Shipley; great-granddaughter, Avery Ivey; along with many nieces, nephews, friends, and her close companion, Kitty.
