Blake Hamilton Obituary
Those Who Love Me
When I am gone, release me, let me go
I have so many things to see and do.
You mustn't tie yourself to me with tears,
Be thankful for our many beautiful years
I gave to you my love. You can only guess
How much you gave to me in happiness.
I thank you for the love you each have shown,
But now it's time I traveled on alone.
So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must,
Then let your grief be comforted by trust.
It's only for a time that we must part
So bless the memories within your heart.
I won't be far away, for life goes on
So if you need me, call and I will come.
Though you can't see or touch me I'll be near
and if you listen with your heart, you'll hear
All my love around you soft and clear.
And then, when you must come this way alone,
I'll greet you with a smile and say …
Welcome Home

Just saw your car and you on Overhauling today. Ten years since we lost you, that car is a tribute of love. You are not forgotten.

I first saw you on overhaul , when your VW was made into your dream car , and in that short time I was memorized by your smile and your positive look in life.
It truly upset me to say these three little words.
Rest in peace

I'll never forget Blakes sense of humor. He had his oxygen tank on his back like a backpack and grabbed the welder out of my hand. I said "hey it's not safe welding near oxygen" and he just laughed and said "Safety, Really" ?? hahah I stepped behind the lift post and there he went. Nothing was stopping that guy. Love it.
Only the good die young. Lucky I got to count him as a friend.

Hoy vi Overhaulin en Argentina, soy fanatico de Fonseca y tenía la esperanza de verlo recuperado y disfrutando de la vida. Que dios tiene en su gloria, descansa en paz. Mis humildes bendiciones para ti y toda tu familia.

Dear Blake, I only met you once in my life and knew you were an angle from god. Thank you for being such a wonderful person and sharing it with your wonderful parents and my daughter. I had a wonderful nephew like you who also went to heaven. You will never be forgotten. Love always, Me

Just watched the episode of Overhaulin featuring Blake and while watching something came over me that I somehow knew Blake is resting with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Your journey is over on this earth Blake, My heartfelt condolences and prayers are extended to your family, friends and the FOOSE CREW - GOD BLESS

As I watch a repeat of one of my favorite Overhaulin episodes I realize it was as much because I'm a huge VW nut but also because your son was a great character and positive light. I'm very sorry for your loss and wish you peace in his memory.

I just saw the Overhaulin' episode, and am saddened to hear that you lost your battle. May your family and loved ones take solace that you are now in a better place, free from all pain and suffering. And that you are rockin' the highways of heaven in the bug of your dreams. Vaia con Dios.

Trust that all the family understand the pleasures they had near the end and the strength altogether, as we all have to go one way and another and at least we have family. I am with you all in memory.

As hard as it is for me to learn that you are gone.. I know you are up in heaven dancing with the angels. Your pain is gone Blake. You were such a good friend to me. I will forever remember you and how much fun we had. I wish your time here with us wasn't so short but I know we will meet again. I will continue to pray for your family. Love you Blake- my friend forever.

Dear Blake: I saw you and your beautiful car on Overhauling and sent my prayers out, right away. I guess the Lord had other plans. I hope your family can find peace in the joy you had with Chip Foose and the team from the show. You deserved much more! I hope your car brings joy to someone and they care for it in your memory! I know I would! RIP Blake Andrew Hamilton.
