Herman Walter Hammer

Herman Walter Hammer was born on August 25, 1937. He went home to be with Jesus on September 20, 2023. Herman was a charter member of Faith Bible Missionary Church in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Serving Jesus was what he longed to do and, especially over the past year, he had a deep passion for revival. Herman was a member of the Three Rivers Woodworking Club. After retiring from Hammer Masonry Construction, woodworking was a hobby he enjoyed, along with hunting, fishing, gardening, canning, and spending time with family, neighbors, and friends. Herman will be truly missed by Linda Hammer, his wife of 63 years, his son and daughter-in-law, Dave and Julie Hammer, and his daughter and son-in-law, Sarah and Charlie Williams. He will also be missed by grandchildren, Misty (granddaughter) and Doug Williams, Dustin (grandson) and Tiffani Hammer, Samuel Williams (grandson), Amanda (granddaughter) and Ross Kline, and four great grandchildren.
