Harry Earl Hammond of Sedalia, MO, passed away on Sunday, November 27, 2022, at Boone Hospital.

Harry’s wishes were to be donated to the St Louis University Gift of Body Program. Harry joins his ever-loving wife of 61 years, Dixie, in heaven. Additionally, he is welcomed by their son, Jeff, and many others that have gone before him.

He was a fun-loving husband, father, father-in-law, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, brother-in-law, and uncle. He did not know a stranger. He really enjoyed talking with others and sharing stories. As he would say, “he could not be more proud of his family.” PawPa loved anytime spent with his grandsons, Joseph and Tyler; granddaughters Alexandra and Adrianne and great-granddaughter Adalynn. While he did not have a chance to meet in person, great-grandson Maddox or great-granddaughter Evie, they have a special place in his heart.

Harry was an over-the-road truck driver for 40 years. One of his many professional accomplishments was being recognized by the State of Missouri for driving over five million miles without an accident or citation. He will certainly be missed by many.

While his time on earth has come to an end, we know he is enjoying a pain-free eternity with God. You’re the best Dad; we love you!

There will be a family celebration of life gathering held at a later date.
