January 16, 2014
We are saddened to announce the sudden passing of Kenneth Hamilton who died peacefully on Thursday, January 16th, 2014 at home in his favourite chair, in his 85th year. Predeceased by his loving wife of 61 years, Marguerite (June 2013), whom he missed dearly. Survived by his loving children Steven (Samira), Paul (Gina), Ellen (Reid), Patrick (Maria), Lisa (Jay) and Andrew. Cherished Grandfather of Michael, Julie, Scott, Sheena, Wesley, Andrew, Kelsey, Skye, Spencer, Perry, Murphy, Philip, Jack and Tate. His memory will be treasured by sisters Joan (Joe) and Kathryn. Predeceased by brother William. Ken devoted many hours volunteering with many service groups. He was a member of the Knights of Columbus (past Grand Knight) and a current member of the Byron Legion. Ken established many friendships throughout his career in sales which could be attributed to his outgoing personality. Cremation has taken place.

To Paul and Gina and entire Family Our sincerest sympathies for the sudden loss of your father, Paul. After meeting him, you could not help but smile. He was witty, handsome, and very charismatic. He would be proud that you are continuing to carry on those traits. Gina, Sheena, and Wes, you were blessed with a great father-in-law and grandfather. He was a bright spirit. He is resting in peace with his beloved wife. Our sympathy also goes out to the rest of your family wishing that you all find solace in each other. Sincerely, Ken, Nikki, Whitney, Kenny, and Paige

Our deepest condolences to Wes, Sheena, Paul, Gina and the rest of the Hamilton family. Absolutely shocked when we read about Ken's passing yesterday. We spent the afternoon with him, catching up on Boxing Day at the Legion, having a few laughs, a pint and he was as sharp, as always. Such a gentleman, and so very proud of his family. We are honored to have had the opportunity to get to know both Ken and Marg and will miss enjoying a pint (or two) with Ken, at Branch 533. Until we meet again Ken....... May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind always be at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face, and rains fall soft upon your fields. And until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
