Kathleen Hamilton Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Oct. 9, 2024.
Kathleen Aquilla Hamilton (née Alexander), affectionately known as GiGi, passed away on September 27, 2024, in Las Vegas, NV, at the age of 85. Born on September 3, 1939, in Lometa, TX, she was the cherished daughter of Winford and Clara Alexander.

Kathleen was preceded in death by her loving parents, her devoted husband Phil Hamilton, her brother Glenn Alexander, and her beloved daughter Paula Cowing. She leaves behind a legacy of love and dedication to her family, survived by her son, Patrick (Kathryn) Hamilton; grandchildren, Christopher (Virginia) Mosier, Amanda Hamilton, Samuel (Chaslina) Hamilton, Tyler Cowing, and Alexander Cowing; and great-grandchildren, Jacob, Kaetlyn, and Mazieann.

Kathleen was deeply committed to her faith and family. She also found joy in reading, writing, and solving crossword puzzles, activities that kept her mind sharp and spirit vibrant.

A service to celebrate her life will be held at the First Christian Church, located at 101 South Rancho Dr, Las Vegas, NV 89106, on October 12, 2024, at 11:00 am. A reception will follow where family and friends can share memories and honor Kathleen's remarkable journey.
