😩 Hammer you always was the light of the party. I didn't know seeing you Easter Day would be our last conversation. Friend I'm going to miss you very dearly and also you just calling and asking how me and the kids doing. It's hard finding good humble friends and you was just that. My condolences is with family and friends with my deepest sympathy.

Hammer I've know you since I was a kid and you lived across from us. You always carried yourself I the most positive way and have always had a humbled spirit. Everything you said you were going to make happened, you did that. The few talks we've had was always great and you smiled all the time. You had plans for the muck. This is a hard pill to swallow. I know that we all have an expiration date. At the moment I feel like yours was just too soon. But God saw fit for you. Your spirit will live on in hearts that you've touched. Love you and miss you Mr Hammer.
