Mama Jean, you mean so much to me and my family. I will never forget your kindness. When my family moved to Louisville, KY in December of 1985, I still remember how you open your heart and made our Christmas very special that year. Thanks for the kind memories you provided my children Kenneth, Aaron and Leshia. I know God has a special place in heaven for you Angel. We love you so much! Sopheria Kenton-Gilcrease and Family.

To my dear friend Reverend Clifford Rogers, and to the Hamilton Family, we are saddened to hear of the loss of your loved one. But praise be to God, as absence from the body is presence with God. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning! May God Bless and keep each of you!

I had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Hamilton while tutoring Deasia. She was the sweetest, most high spirited person one could meet. She always greeted me with well wishes and made me feel so welcomed in her home. It is with great sympathy that I am sending you my prayers and blessings. God bless. (A to Z Tutoring)

My heart goes out to the Hamilton/Rogers family in the passing of Sis. Hamilton. Remember "earth truly does not have any sorrow that heaven cannot heal." God bless her memory and legacy. All of us are better by having been influenced and taught by her.

To the Hamilton Family:
The most precious memory I have
of Mother Hamilton is the stories
she told me about my Mother who I
lost when I was just 12 years old.
I will never forget her kind words
and soft touch whenever we met. She
was a true woman of GOD's own Heart!
Continue to feel Blessed because as
you can see GOD has blessed you all
with 80 years of a wonderful life.
Your friend and family in the name
of Jesus!

Mother Hamilton the hugs, kisses, and kind words from you reminded me sooo much of my grandmother. I'm sure that was just your personality, but I looked forward to seeing you at church on Sundays, because you would always make my soul feel good. You always made me feel welcomed when I at your house. I feel blessed that you were a part of my life, even though it was for a short period. Love you!

Mrs. Jean,
I will miss you so very much. I pray for your family that they will make it while you are gone. Thank you for all the kind words you gave me over the years and thank you for being my adopted mother.

The World that we know of has lost a Jewel, but Heaven has gained another Beautiful Soul. Mrs. Hamilton will truly be missed, but I believe that her legacy will live on. She taught how to live right, how to think right, how to do right, how to love right, how to share right and how to be right. In my eyes, she was a beautiful person. I'm so grateful that God Blessed me with the opportunity to know her and to share many years of my life with her. To her family, continue to hold on to God's unchanging hand. He'll be here for you when no one else will. Troy, it is going to be okay. Know that God, who sits high and looks low will continue to be with you all. In Loving Memory, Love Monica

Jean you will be missed deeply. I will always cherish your words of encouragement, your beautiful smile, and your positive and uplifting personality. I've enjoyed going on missionary outings with you and wilma, Zulean, Anna, Christine,and of course Aunt Minnie. Most of you are all back together again. Someday I'll meet you at the feet of Jesus.
