To ALL the Hamilton family:

Such a legacy to leave behind! A family of wonderful individuals. I have felt so blessed to know and met so many of you. You know your dad, great/grand-father was so proud of you all. You and the community have benefited and lost an important veteran/citizen.
Our thoughts, prayers and condolences are with you today and the up-coming difficult (processing) weeks.
