Larry Hall Memorial Scholarship
Larry Mac Hall was born on October 29, 1952, in Anson, Texas, to Lawrence Mitchell and Myrl Horn Hall. He was their third child and the first baby born at Anson Memorial Hospital.
Raised in Anson, Larry attended school there until his graduation from Anson High School in 1971. Larry attended Southwest Texas State University and McMurry University.
While many people in the Big Country recognize Larry’s name in the local automotive industry, the story of his life extends before and beyond his family’s business.
When Larry was only four years old, his parents started Lawrence Hall Chevrolet in Anson. From an early age, Larry learned to work hard and prioritize people in his father’s business. That lasting value was a cornerstone of Larry’s character and his business practices from his earliest involvement in the Anson family business.

Larry has been most proud to be a father to his four children: Michele, Haskell, Christian, and Harrison. Being “Big Daddy” to Rachel, Mac, Jag, Kate, Pierce, and Macy was truly the role he wanted and the one he most cherished.
