Mrs Hamilton was one of the finest ladies I knew from Colonie to Las Vegas; all of my life. When we moved here in 1977 she and her family welcomed us to Lake Havasu with open arms.(eventually sunburnt on the lake that labor day weekend from spending the day on the pontoon boat). I remember her in Colonie, all the neighbor kids, with Kevin and Donna and even little Timmy swimming in their above ground pool. They had great summer cookouts. And she was the best hostess. The kids had a snake one summer stored in her milk box, which of course she looked into and it scared the heck out of her. Somebody got a wicked scolding that day. Out here in Vegas, Judy and I had many a 4th of July BBQ at our home. Mr and Mrs Hamilton attended many a year, looking forward to the steamed clams we always had. Blains, Hamiltions and Egloffs always together as much as possible. Great friends over many years and miles. She was always smiling and enjoying the jokes and the kids. We always loved their visits.
My deepest sympathy to all the family, Kevin, Tim: I know you will miss her terribly as will all your children and spouses. We all will miss her. It will be hard at first, but she is at rest with her loving husband Neil and sweet daughter Donna.
Love you all so much.
