Robert Eugene Hammig of Chelsea, was born on February 8, 1935, and passed away peacefully in his favorite chair at home with his wife, Kathy, of nearly 58 years by his side.
Bob was born and raised in Lawrence, Kansas where his parents lived their entire lives and he took his own family frequently to visit.
As a young man, he moved West – stopping to work at Yellowstone National Park before ending up in Denver, Colorado in 1963. He and Kathy met at St John’s United Methodist Church while working together in the youth program. They were married during a Sunday morning service on June 12, 1966.
Friends and family would characterize Bob as quiet, calm and kind. He was steady and dependable and had a wicked sense of humor. Bob was unassuming so in his spirit and in lieu of any service, his family suggests that you pick up that rock that catches your eye or spend some time patiently waiting for that fish to bite.
