James L. Uhrhammer
James L. Uhrhammer died Dec. 11, 2003, surrounded by his family at his home after a short battle with pancreatic cancer. He was 64 years old.
He was born May 20, 1939, in Salem, Ore., the son of Louis and Gwendolyn Uhrhammer.
After graduation from medical school and internship, he joined the Public Health Service. He spent two years working in tuberculosis control in Tennessee before deciding to take an ophthalmology residency in St. Louis and San Francisco. He spent three years at the Indian Health Hospital in Gallup, N.M., before starting his private practice in Davis.
During his 29 years in practice, he traveled to China three times and to Fiji once to teach and perform cataract surgery. He cherished his work in the community and the relationships he developed over his many years in this area.
He will be greatly missed by his friends and family.
He is survived by his wife, Sandy; his daughters, Andrea and Amanda; his granddaughter, Emelie; his sister, Nancy Palmer; his brothers-in-law, Robert Palmer and Mark Cook; and his sons-in-law, David Morrow and Patrick Conan.
All are welcome to celebrate his life at a reception Wednesday from 3 to 6 p.m. at the El Macero Country Club. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to Yolo Hospice, P.O. Box 1014, Davis, CA 95617.
