To the Hammett Family:
For myself personally I was not aware of Dillard's passing but my mother who died 6 years ago on September 29, 2010 of cancer I am fairly sure along with my father probably greeted him with open arms in heaven waiting for "Sweet Dillard" to come join him. My family has such a great love for the Hammit family & we thank Dillard for his kindness in helping my nephew to get college in Oklahoma. We will forever grateful for all his kindnesses! My special love to...

Mrs. Hammett & Family:
Like so many who had the privilege to experience Dillard's humor, friendship and counsel, I thank God for those lasting memories and lessons.
It's a testament to Dillard, that 41 years later, I remember his passion for Indian Hand Wrestling, practical jokes and his absolute serious academic and career advice in the same moment.
The Barbosas understand and strive to reach Dillard's and your Family's Life's Values.
God shared...

Georgina, my condolences to you and your family for the loss of such a special man. I will never forget Dillard's caring generosity to become personally involved to help a family when needed, or to give advice when consulted. You have been really great role models to everyone who has had the good fortune to know both of you. He will be greatly missed but not forgotten. Words are never enough, but as you bid farewell and celebrate a life "well-lived", know that there are a lot of us thinking...

I am so sorry to hear the news about Dillard. My condolences to the family.
I met Dillard when he came to see BP in London in 1980 to "explain" a rig tender to us. He and I spent a couple of days together filling in the gaps, and a few weeks later SEDCO were duly awarded the contract. He then arranged for me to work with him and the team on the project, beginning with a year in the office next to him in Dallas, followed by the shipyard in South Korea and operations out of Aberdeen....
