Started work with David at Energy Transfer a day later than him because I had to wait on doctor’s approval. He always said he had seniority on me because he started first by one day. Good man to work with. I was a Pipeline Technician and he a Plant Operator. I had a hat made for him “Energy Transfer Worthless Plant Operator” because he said the guys at Rebel Plant said he was worthless. 😆 He was probably the hardest working guy there. He said his wife didn’t like the hat. We traded hats all the time. Sure missed him when I left.

I have wonderful memories of working with David and my son, butch at Rexene. Also great memories of fishing trips with David. My condolences to David's family

Till we meet again my friend.

A memorial tree was planted in memory of David Halbert . Plant a Tree

I am sorry for the loss of my Brother!

David was just a good guy. He was a friend you could count on. Rexene was a place that had a lot of fun on the softball fields or some time at plant. RIP David!

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

What a sad sad day, the loss of a great man Loved by all that knew him. A very free spirit of a man that truly Loved his savior. And his beautiful family. We will all miss him very much but hope to see again one day. Praying for the family.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
