    I would just like to leave a short message to the Hammond Family as the tears fill my eyes i also find my self with a grin and a smile thinking about time I spent with Ed.Sr. Some one I call my friend a Man’s Man who always seemed to have a way of making me feel at home where ever we were. He had no Fear of man or beast would take on projects no one else could or would. A man that could tell a story or a Lie that would make even the meanest of person smile.So Connie and Family I say to you in your time of loss my heart and prayers are with you all. To Sr.Until we meat Again.
