February 11, 1982 Honorable Mayor and Honorable Members of City Council and City Manager City of Englewood 3400 South Elati Englewood, CO 80110 Gentlemen: The Dorsey Hall family came to Englewood in 1927. The family members were D.E . Hall, Sr. and Elizabeth, the father and mother and Dorsey Hall, Jr., Howard Hall, Alonzo C. (Sam) Hall and Eleanor, whose married name is Hoagland. The Hall family owned and operated the Hall Sand and Gravel Company from 1937 to 1968. D.E. Hall, Sr. died in 1960 and Dorsey Hall, Jr. in 1980. Mother Ha l l and the remaining members of the family still reside in or near Englewood. The family has recently concluded a sale of about five (5) acres of land to the City for use as ·an extension to Centennial Park to the east. Further, we noticed in the paper that you are setting up a non- profit corporation and foundation to receive money £or park development and maintenance in the City. We heartily endorse the idea. We propose to give to the foundation the sum of $10,000.00. We plan to give this money with no strings attached as to its use for park purposes; however, if the City would deem it proper for some recognition to the family, we would suggest something which memorializes D.E. and Elizabeth Hall .
