Sorry to hear of Mr. Hamaker's passing. My family and I will keep him and the entire Hamaker Family in our prayers. I have very fond memories of the entire Hamaker Family growing up in Berwyn. I enjoyed the years playing ball at the rec and football on Thanksgiving with the Hamaker group where Mr. Hamaker was just one of the guys. God Bless all of you.

Dear Hamaker Family,
I am so sorry to hear about Bob's passing. I really enjoyed our conversations at the family get togethers, whether it was about how the company was doing, how our White Sox where playing or just sharing a beer. He was a great guy and we will miss him very much. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Dear Hamaker Family,
I am so sad to hear of Mr. Hamaker's passing. I have wonderful memories of him. I remember him riding his bike to work, driving his beetle with the orange/red ball on the antenna and playing catch with the boys. He was a great neighbor. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
