Athens, Ga
Ellen died on March 31, 2005 at the age of 82. Beloved mother of Dr. Deborah Hammond Budge and Colonel Harvey L. Hammond, Jr.
She was a woman ahead of her time, balancing love of family with professional pursuits. She was born into a loving Christian home on March 3, 1923 along with a much loved twin sister, Helen Crowe Colston, known as “The Crowe Twins, ” in Bogart Georgia. She was the daughter of the late Joel Allen and Myrtice McHugh Crowe.
She graduated from Bogart High School in 1940 and then graduated with honors from the Athens Business College, working for 17 years for Wilkins Industries as financial secretary and payroll clerk.

She also worked seven more years for Dr. Eugene Younts and Colonel Robert Rowan at the University of Georgia. She enjoyed a good life, a total of 38 working years.
Ellen and Harvey were high school sweethearts, and sincerely loved each other. So in 1945 she married
Harvey L. Hammond and they were a very devoted and loving couple.
Harvey was working for Southern Bell Telephone and Telegraph Company here in Athens and retired from the company after 43 years of service. In 1950 they joined the First Baptist Church of Athens where she has been a member for 54 years and a devoted and active member of the Dorcus-Snow Sunday School Class. Their children, Deborah and Lee grew up here at First Baptist Church and we all loved this church very much. Ellen and Harvey both were very religious people and taught many years in Sunday school, teaching young people. In fact, one of Ellen’s students is still living here in Athens and constantly tells her that she kept her on the right path and how she appreciates this care when she was a teenager. Harvey and Ellen have served on almost every committee there is in the church and her husband, Harvey, was Dr. Jon Appleton’s first Deacon Board Chairman. Ellen was a member of the Athens Country Club, an avid cook, reader and golfer and achieved the fete of making two holes-in –one, on the same hole, of golf.
She was so proud of her two children. She and Harvey loved these children dearly and were so proud when they excelled in something they were doing.
Ellen loved people and was a good and caring caregiver to her mother and for her twin sister, Helen.
