Fire officials said the memorial service will serve as an opportunity for friends, family, colleagues and the public to pay their respects and show support for Hall's family.

They also provided a link to a GoFundMe page to support Hall's family. It was organized by the Sacramento Area Firefighters Widows and Orphans Fund.

"Tim was unequivocally, without hyperbole, the best truck driver for USAR Task Force 7 on which he served for over 10 years. Tim embodied quiet strength, grit, and immense mental fortitude. He was a gentle soul with a servant heart who did everything in his power to serve his community and provide for his family," the organizers said.

According to the fire department, Hall was a fire investigator, member of the Urban Search and Rescue Task Force and a fire engineer.

“Our fire department is heartbroken,” said WSFD Chief Steve Binns. “Engineer Hall loved this City and bravely served to protect our community.”
