Below is an obituary from Millennium Cremation Services:
VERO BEACH, MA — Sonja Hall, 85, of Vero Beach, Florida, passed away peacefully on February 18, 2026, of natural causes.
Born on November 29, 1940, in Chelsea, Massachusetts, Sonja was the daughter of Birger and Helen Myrstad. She graduated from Wilmington High School and spent many years living in Wilmington, Lexington, Harvard, Acton, and Leominster, Massachusetts, before settling in Vero Beach six years ago, a place she had long cherished as a winter home.
Sonja was predeceased by her parents.
She is survived by her beloved husband of 64 years, William C. Hall; her children, William (Veronica) Hall Jr., Wendy Clarke, and Heidi (Mark) Smith; her cherished grandchildren, Christina, Nicole, Danielle, Cooper, Ariana, and Hector; and her treasured great-grandchildren, Henrik, Andrea, Charlie, Madison, and Elliana.
From a young age, Sonja had a deep love for animals, a passion she carried throughout her life. Over the years, she cared for everything from cats and dogs to horses and other farm animals. Above all, she was devoted to her family. She dedicated herself to raising her three children and worked side by side with her husband in their family business. Nothing brought her greater joy than watching her family grow, and she took immense pride in her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Sonja will be remembered for her devotion to her family, her love of animals, and the warmth and strength she brought to all who knew her.
