Charles Hammond Obituary
Sister Bay - Of Sister Bay passed away peacefully on March 25, 2019 at the age of 86.
Beloved husband of Janet (nee Aykens) for 60 years. Loving father of Monique (Mark) Swiecichowski, of New Berlin and Mitchell (Carrie) of Findlay, OH; loving grandfather of Nicole (Quinn) Hundertmark, Andrew Swiecichowski, Sam Griffith, Melina and Nickolas Hammond. Great grandfather of Dawson Hundertmark. Further survived his brother Lawrence (Carmen) and nieces and nephews Michelle (Randy) Newburg, Mark, Mathew (Lucy), and other relatives and friends. Preceded by death by his parents Walter and Olive Hammond.
Born in Chicago, IL, he attended Lane Tech High School, further graduating from Northwestern University '54 and University of Illinois College of Medicine, Chicago in 1958. He served his country in the US Army Medical Corps from 1959-1968.
Upon discharge, he settled his family in Neenah where he joined the Twin City Clinic as OB/GYNE. He was instrumental in developing, and chaired, the Neonatal High Risk Clinic at Theda Clark. He retired from La Salle Clinic after 26 years of devoted work. During his career he tirelessly advocated for comprehensive and uniform perinatal care. While serving as president of the Wisconsin Association for Perinatal Care, he sought to advance and improve care using a multidisciplinary approach. For his many contributions, he received the Thomas A. Leonard/Helen Callon award, the highest WAPC honor awarded an individual.
His other passions and joys included his family, traveling with Jan and boating. His sailing passion lead to a term as president of the Fox Valley Sailing School and activities within the Nodaway Yacht Club in the '80s. He later served as commodore of the Boca Ciega Point Boating Club in Maderia Beach FL.

So very sorry for your loss, I worked with Dr. Hammond at TBC. He cared very much for his patients and they were all in very good hands. He and I were both in the Army, I was stationed at the hospital at West Point and he told me once while we were waiting for a delivery that he really would have liked to have been stationed there! I'm sorry he didn't get that assignment, but he had a very nice career and it sure sounds like he had a great retirement.

It was a privilege as an OB RN to work with him at Theda Clark Hospital (ThedaCare). I learned so much from him. He was our family OB-GYN doc. He delivered my brother some 47yrs ago and I was able to be the nurse on his last delivery on my brother's 26th birthday. He will be greatly missed.
