Obituary of Adele Coryell Hall, philanthropist and wife of Hallmark Cards chairman Donald Joyce Hall. Adele Hall was born on October 7, 1931 in Lincoln, Nebraska, and moved to Kansas City after her marriage in 1953. Among her many accomplishments, she served on the boards of the Heart of America United Way and Children's Mercy Hospital, devoted time to supporting causes with an emphasis on children's health and education, and co-led the fundraising effort for the Bloch Building and renovation of the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. Henry Bloch is quoted as saying, "If there ever was a first lady of Kansas City, it was Adele." Adele Hall died on January 26, 2013 at her home in Hawaii at the age of 81.
