Hammy Is Dead

Hammy, an Emmy-winning comic actor whose television characters ranged from the slow-witted Every-Hamster on "The Office" to a loved pet on the recent sitcom "Two and a Half Men" died today in his home in Brianna's room. He was 85 in hamster years.

He was honored with a brief but meaningful service almost immediately following the news of his death. He is buried in the front yard, near the fence, so that we don't accidentally dig him up.

We honor his short life with us today in pictures:
