Gurgi, Age 85

Former Texas resident Gurgi, 85, died Dec. 23, 2005, at his home in Houston, Texas.

At his request, no service will be held.

Gurgi was born May. 30, 1920, in Sacramento, Calif., to Salvatore and Elle Hall.
Gurgi could accomplish anything he set his mind to do. At a very early age, he built a wagon to push his little brother around that was too little to walk.
Gurgi served in the United State Air Force, during World War II as a radio operator. He spent 14 months in the South Pacific. In 1942, Gurgi came to Texas with his wife, Sally.
His interests included family, gardening, sewing and reading. He devoted much of his time and energy as a caregiver to family members, including his mother until she passed away at age 70.
He worked many years for Amtrak and for Exxon during the oil spill as their communications specialist.
Gurgi spent more than 50 years in Texas. He and his wife, Sally, built their vacation home in Galveston, Texas and enjoyed many wonderful winters there together.
He is survived by his wife of 28 years, Sally; daughter, Jean Hall.
