John Allen Hammac, a native and lifelong resident of Mobile, Alabama, passed away on Wednesday, October 19, 2022. He was 69 years old. 

Throughout his life, John enjoyed many varied interests and hobbies, music and sports chief among them. An avid concert-goer, he enjoyed all genres, from the Allman Brothers Band, to Widespread Panic, to Steely Dan, and countless others. Also a gifted athlete, John transitioned from athlete and teammate in his youth to, "Coach John" as an adult.
