Captain Harry Vinson Hammond III, 83, of Crystal Lake, passed away on July 17, 2024. He was born on September 9, 1941 in Dallas, TX to Harry and Clydie Myrl Hammond.
Married on January 26, 1963, Vince leaves behind his wife of 61 years, Dana Dill Hammond; children, Vince Hammond and Tracy (Todd) Stegall; seven grandchildren and four great grandchildren; and his brother, John (Susan) Hammond.
Vince and Dana attended The Crystal Lake Christian Church and he was a pilot for United Airlines for 32 years. He enjoyed playing his guitar and golfing, but these were mere diversions to occupy time that was not already devoted to taking care of the needs of those around him. The true driving force of his being was to be attentive to, and responsive to, the needs of everyone he felt needed some help. He watched over us all and dedicated himself to the service of others. It would be difficult to enumerate the people’s lives who he touched and helped during his lifetime. A huge loss is felt by his absence. Vince is loved and greatly missed by his family, friends, and all who knew him.
A visitation will be on Friday, July 26, from 4pm until 7pm at Davenport Family Funeral Home and Crematory, 419 E. Terra Cotta Ave., Crystal Lake. A funeral service will be Saturday, July 27, at 11am with a visitation beginning at 10am at The Crystal Lake Christian Church, 8015 Ridgefield Rd., with burial to follow at Crystal Lake Memorial Park.
In lieu of flowers, memorials in Vince's name can be made to the Crystal Lake Christian Church, 8015 Ridgefield Rd., Crystal Lake, IL 60012.
