I had an unsettling feeling that Saturday and felt the need to reach out to my father. A month had passed since our previous phone conversation. In that conversation, it had been previously left that he would get back to me in a week regarding an outdoor get together I suggested and hoped for due to the pandemic. After hanging up the phone that day, I felt very sad and cried a bit. I told my friend Stacie I would never see him again.  I hadn't seen him since December 2019.  Meanwhile, a day had passed and no answer from my father. I tried him twice this day but still no response. I then reached out to my sister with this somewhat strange dilemma. She then reached out to our father but received the same response to no avail.  I tried again on the third day, Monday, but still nothing. Finally, thanks to Erin's looking further, we found our father at Newton Medical Center in ICU.  A few days later he passed. I was frustrated, angry, and sad. I remember him saying, some 27 years ago, when he was hospitalized for open heart surgery, that he doesn't like for people to see him suffer. Erin and I did not understand this and felt neglected. Fortunately, the surgery was a success and he carried on. Unfortunately, this time was different. I love you Dad and remember fishing at Mr. Hardy's dock.  I wish I had a photo to share but those moments were rare. RIP Dad.

Dear Kathleen,

Please accept our sincere condolences on the passing of your loving husband Bob.

Our thoughts are with you during these painful days.  Please let us know if there is anything at all we can do for you.

Love,

Sean and Cathy

Erin and Eric,

I am very sorry for the loss of your dad. 

 Erin, I have heard you speak of him over the years and he comes to mind when I think of Florida as I know he enjoyed spending time there.  

We are thinking of you and Eric during this time.  

We love you,

Tamara, Greg and Olivia Hammer
