Jim Ray was born January 25, 1930 on the family farm near New Hope to Alfred and Rosezine (Anderson) Hammer. He was one of the many babies delivered by Dr. Sammons.

When they returned to Texas in 1971, they started their family and ran the family business, Hammer’s Service, for over 50 years.
Jim was preceded in death by his parents; his lovely bride, Edie and son, Dennis.
Survivors include children, Lynn and Yvonne Hammer and David Hammer; grandchildren, Robert and Jason Hammer; great grandchildren, Russell, Nathan, Dodge and Noah; sister, Joyce (Hammer) Peacock and a host of nieces, nephews and cousins.
Pallbearers will be Lynn Hammer, David Hammer, Robert Hammer, Jason Hammer, Douglas Peacock and James Peacock.
