He had a long history of polysistic kidney disease resulting in a successful transplant in 2007.

After an incredible lifetime of travel, challenges and accomplishments, he received a MS degree from UVA in Middle Eastern Studies in 2022 at 85.

He is survived by 2 daughters from his first marriage Malena Laylin & Simonne Laylin Shuey, a daughter from his second marriage, Tafline Kay Laylin, his wife of 40 years, Carol Hallman, and her two children, Christopher and Jessica Hallman. A service at Culpeper National Cemetery will be held in the spring.
