Timothy Hamilton Obituary

Brattleboro - Timothy Edward Hamilton, 73 of Cooke Road, a lifelong resident of Brattleboro, went home to be with his Lord and Savior on July 15, 2022, after a short battle with cancer. He was born on September 10, 1948, to Ruth and R. Edward Hamilton and was raised on the family's dairy farm. Timothy was well known as a sawyer, sawing custom pine and hemlock lumber. He spent the summer months excavating and loved to create unique features like ponds and stonewalls in many backyards. He was a lifetime sugarmaker, a trade he enjoyed alongside his family including his mother and father. When he was young, he would help his mom gather the sap while his dad would boil it down into maple syrup. Later, he would spend the spring days making syrup with his wife, children, grandchildren and friends.

In June of 1971, he married Patricia (Lowell) Hamilton, the two were happily married for 51 years. He is survived by his wife, two children, Lindsay (Hamilton) Porter and Mark Hamilton, their spouses Eric Porter and Sarah (Kendall) Hamilton, his three grandchildren Katelynn, Kyle and Tyke Hamilton, his sister Betsy (Hamilton) Neumeister, his brothers Dean and Jay Hamilton as well as many beloved nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his mother Ruth Hamilton, Father R. Edward Hamilton and nephew Jesse Hamilton.

A Celebration of Life will be conducted at Grace Community Evangelical Free Church in Spofford, NH on Friday July 22, 2022, at 10:00am where all who knew Tim are welcome to attend. Graveside services for immediate family will be in the Hamilton family lot in West Brattleboro Cemetery on Mather Road.

In lieu of flowers memorial contributions can be made to Smile Train, International, an organization which provides quality cleft palate care all over the world, PO Box 96231, Washington, DC 20090 (https://www.smiletrain.org/).

I remember watching you boil sap. Thank you for letting me enjoy the smell and knowing wood burning for syrup tastes the best. I loved hearing your stories Tim.
