Hobert Lyn Hall, 71, of Mt. Sterling, Kentucky passed away Monday afternoon, February 28, 2022 at St. Joseph of Mt. Sterling, surrounded by his loving family. He was born in Floyd County on December 27, 1950 to the late Burnis and Audrey Osborne Hall.

Hobert was born and raised in Floyd County, Kentucky until 1990 when he became a resident of Montgomery County. He was of the Christian faith, Mason with FE&M Lodge in Floyd County, and was a car dealer in the automotive industry. He was the owner and operator of Hall’s Auto Auction for many years. Hobert was a sport enthusiast. Weekends were reserved for Bengals Football, UK Wildcat Basketball, and NASCAR. He may have been Mark Martin and Dale Earnhardt’s biggest fan. However, out of all the players in the world, his son, Hobie, was his favorite to watch. You could find him on the fence cheering Hobie on or in the baseball concession stand grilling the best burgers, pork tenderloin, and hot dogs. Hobert was known as a master chef. He loved to feed others and share a meal. He was renowned for his biscuits & gravy, chicken & dumplin’s, and Ale-8 Country Ham. Hobert had two favorite pastimes. He loved to mow lawns, it brought him joy to mow a yard evenly and to clean it. His second favorite pastime was being the Mayor of Route 11 Liquor. He enjoyed the company of friends and shared many great memories with the people there. He will be dearly missed by his family and friends.
