Lee's obituary

Crematory
Lee Ann Hala, 65, of Modest Town, VA, passed
away on Monday, November 13, 2023. Lee was
born January 10, 1958, a daughter to Anne Francis
Costello, in the Bronx, NY.
Anyone who knew Lee, knew she was fun and
sassy. She loved to laugh and took the chance to
enjoy nature every chance she got. Lee found
beauty in the greens, golds, and browns of the
earth. She tended to her plants daily, and she
relished their growth and beauty. In her younger
years, she developed quite an artistic talent. Over
the years, she cultivated many paintings. A
paintbrush in her hand, Tom Petty on the radio,
and birdwatching brought her peace. Christian
faith gave her strength and peace in her later
years. She loved the Lord and accepted him as her
savior years ago. She was so proud of her family
and their accomplishments. Her family will miss
her for a long time.
Lee is survived by her children, Christine
Godbold of Modest Town, Cheslea Dyer (James
Dyer) of Richmond, VA, Kellianne Turner (Ryan
Turner) of San Antonio, TX, Kaitlyn O'Brien
(Ethan Morgan) of Bloxom, VA, and Austin
O'Brien (Kelsey Sneddon) of Asbury Park, NJ;
brothers, Steven Hodgdon, Thomas Costello, Chris
Costello, Frank Costello, and Kevin Costello;
grandchildren, Michael Radich, Joshua Radich,
Cailyn Radich, Chloe Dyer, Rowan Dyer, Oona
Dyer, Harper Turner, Emerie Turner, Jasper
O'Brien, and Fenrir O'Brien; numerous nieces,
and nephews; and her beloved pug, Chloe, andcavalier, Mona. She was preceded in death by her
mother, Anne Costello; husband, John Hala; and
life partner, Fred Ayoub.
A private service will be held at a later date.
