Ms. Margie always greeted me with a smile and hug that would brighten my day. I’m glad I had the pleasure of knowing her. My condolences and prayer to the family….
RIH Margie. Ya’ll were amazing neighbors. I remember doing a job fair with you prior to retiring! I’m honored that our paths crossed.
My condolences to the family. From one New Castle girl to another, Margie was a wonderful person and it was a pleasure knowing her. I remembered her smile and determination. Margie will always be with you in your hearts.
My sincere condolences to the Hammond’s family praying that God will keep his loving arms wrapped around you during this time. Margie will be greatly missed.
Dear Family:
How beautifully fitting
& appropriate our Pastor, Rev. Scott eulogized our dear member and friend today at noon at First Nazareth BC.
His chosen title, “How To Make It Count” was supported by scripture from Proverbs 31:30.
As he suggested that when you have favor, from the Lord, you
have to handle it right…not arrogant, or snooty, but down to earth as you “fear the Lord”.
Margie Hammond’s bubbling personality attracted those in her presence to her , whether at work, church, with family or elsewhere.
She was likeable & loving in every way as you got to know her , even if you just met her. She exuded joy & a pleasant disposition all the time.
Who wouldn’t want to be in her presence for “she knew who gave her what she had ” as Rev. Scott extolled.
She realized & recognized that her labor would not be in vain in the Lord. She was ready to be offered up on her day!
She was a beautiful lady and “He made it count, because she made it count” T o God be the Glory!
Prayers 🙏 to the Family during this time of bereavement God bless this dear soul 😇 RIH

Since the day I met Margie, many years ago, when I became an employee of USC, I’ve known her to be a pleasant, kind and cheerful person. I’m sure each of her family members feels like there’s a hole in each of their hearts upon the loss of their dear, sweet Margie.
My wish, my hope, is that they, and each of us who knew and love Margie, will be comforted and strengthened by the memories of the happy tines we shared with her.
My heart-felt sympathies to Margiie’s family.

My prayers and condolences to her children and the entire family. Margie was a wonderful person and will be missed. Rest in peace beautiful one.
Gone from our touch but never our hearts. Margie was an amazing example for so many young professionals at the University of South Carolina. She showed kindness, joy, faith, and pride through all that she did. “Margie Marg” as I often called her was such a wonderful and grounded co-worker that those of all ages just wanted to be around her and wear a suit as good as her. Working alongside Margie you could never truly have a bad day. She had a contagious laugh, smile, and potato chip habit. I learned so much from her over the years and I am Blessed to have worked alongside her until she retired. I am praying for your strength through this difficult time, because she loved her family.
Dear Hammonds Family, on behalf of the Ruff Family, please accept our condolences. Margie was always such a welcoming person, friendly like she has known you all your life. God even managed to put her close to our children through their work places. Thank you Margie for being our friend!

This was not the outcome I expected. I am thankful for the many years of collaboration and camaraderie. From past women’s day steering committees, the greeter’s ministry, Human Resources committee and trustee ministry we have faithfully served together. Over the years we have enjoyed many meals with our fellow Dinner D.I.V.A.S. I especially appreciated the laughter and voice of reason.
May those who loved Margie find peace and strength recalling precious memories. May I fulfill the future plans we discussed.Rest well my friend, until we meet again.

Margie was such a beautiful soul to know. I will always remember her infectious laughter and beautiful smile. She was truly a virtuous woman of God.
Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss. She and my mother (Dianne) were hairdresser buddies. May God continue to wrap his loving arms around you all.
My prayers and thoughts are with the Hammonds family during this difficult time. I went to school with her and when I saw her after along time, her personality had not changed. May you find peace and strength knowing that God is with you.
I heard a minister say that when someone passes everyone says sorry for your loss, he then said you cannot be lost, because God doesn’t lose anyone.
Margie, always kept me laughing when we saw each other always a smile. So many memories but so little time. Girl, you will be missed.
My prayers and condolences for the family and friends.
My deepest condolences to the Hammond family. It was a pleasure to serve with Margie on the Sunshine Garden ministry. She had a beautiful smile and heart. She will truly be missed.
Our sincere condolences to the Hammonds family. It saddened us to learn that Margie had passed away. She was so cheerful and pleasant. Truly a joy to be around.
Her smile just lit up the beauty salon.
And whenever we saw her elsewhere, she was with her daughter Meagan or with her sisters or with family period and beaming like a ray of sunshine.
She was always in good company and she was good company as well.
We will truly miss her.
May God comfort the family in their time of sorrow.
Love, Mary Ann Cullum and daughters💞

Ms. Margie’s smile could light up any room! Reflecting back on her I believe she was a great mother and that is evident in Larry and Meagan. I’ll always remember her beautiful smile. Thank you for your kind words, motivation, and the job opportunity you gave me. I regret not stopping to knock on your door before I left SC earlier this year. Thank you God for Ms. Margie, and continue to watch over her Family and bring them peace during this difficult time.

Unaware of the passing of my friend Margie, a friend from another time and place sent me the following note today: “When we lose someone we love, we must learn not to live without them, but to live with the love they left behind.” Margie Hammonds leaves a tremendous amount of love to envelop her family and friends as we cope with our loss and Heaven’s gain. Her easy smile and quick laugh remain in my heart as I send thoughts and prayers from my family to hers.

This is way too hard. I was not expecting this outcome this soon. I can’t even begin to explain what it’s meant to have Margie as a friend for over 50 years. Thank you, family, for allowing me to be a part of your family. Goodbyes are not forever. Goodbyes are not the end. They simply mean I’ll miss you, until we meet again. Rest in peace, my friend! Forever in my heart.
Ooooh! Margie, we did not talk before you left us! I called you the day before you made your transition because you had not returned my calls or text messages. When my sister told me, I already knew because you were talking to me in my heart. Margie I hear your laugh and I know you are at peace. Rest my friend. I love you!!
