My wife, connie, and I extend sympathy to the family. I was pastor of St. John's Lutheran church in Millvale from 1989 to 1999. Mr. Hammond was a fine man and a good friend to me during that time.

Ron and I were so sorry to hear of Mr. H's passing. We have been back from Las Vegas for a few months but did not have the pleasure of seeing all of you together since our return. If there is anything we can do please let us know.
As you know Mr. H was one of my favorite people (Ann) and he will be sorely missed.

Dear Hammond Family, I offer my sincere condolences.I'm glad I knew Milt and had the pleasure to play golf with him.He will be missed by all who knew him.When my first daughter was 2 years old,I wrote a poem about her and Milt published it in the Green Sheet.I'm sure he did it for me not the readers.(it just wasn't that good) Thanks again MILT.

I'm so sorry to hear about Mr. Hammond's death. I worked at the Green Sheet in 1991, and he was the only person who would give me a job. I also remember how he passed out candy bars on Friday afternoon.

Dear Mike and Kathy,
I am sorry to hear about your father, and just wanted to let you know if you need any help with the boys, (transportation, babysitting, etc.) let me know.

What a joy I had in knowing Milt. We golfed. We drank together at Alcoma and he was a business associate. He alway use to say I was a great salesman . That he bought season tickets to World Team Tennis and he did not anything about tennis.The truth was he knew I needed the sale. What a Great Man.
