Andrew Duane Hale, affectionately known as “AJ,” passed away on September 1st, 2025, at the age of 36. Born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Andrew’s journey through life was marked by bold ambition, infectious humor, and an unwavering devotion to his family and friends, especially his girls Addy and Anna. He was an entrepreneur working in the scrap and recycling business for many years, as the owner of FMM Pipe and Salvage. He was a music enthusiast and even produced some of his own. "AJ Hale" was a larger than life, gregarious jokester who more than anything else, loved being a dad to his girls. At his core, that is what he was most proud of… being Addy and Anna’s dad. At the mere mention of their names, he would light up and begin to tell stories of their adventures.

Andrew is survived by his children, Adelyn Sophia Hale and Anniston Nicole Hale. His mother Tammy Orgeron, Grandfather Charles Hollingsworth (Carolyn) and siblings Richard Hale (Anita), Mary Grizzard (Tee), Andrea Hale-Arnold (Danny), Kacie Hatcher (Jarrett), Kelsey Hale-Saucier (Chase), Abigayle Orgeron, Jessica Eubanks (Eric), Michelle McElroy (Shawn), Stephanie Gary (Dakota) and a host of family, friends.

He was preceded in death by his father William Andrew Hale, brother Ronnie A. Hale, Stepfather Kenneth Orgeron, paternal grandparents John B. and Claudia Hale and maternal grandmother Betty Hollingsworth, and Step-Grandmother Audrey Orgeron.
