May the Lord be with and comfort the Hamilton family. Mr. Hamilton was like a Father to me, and I love and will miss him dearly. His work was completed here on earth, but now God has called him home to continue his work. God will take good care of him, and we all will miss him. The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.

I am so sorry for your loss. I knew Al from work at BCBS. He was the security guard there and always was so kind and had a smile for anyone that crossed his path. He had a kind face and one that I miss. To hear of his passing made me very sad. Many prayers to his family during this difficult time. Gina Trejo-Funk BCBSTX Wichita Falls

What an honor to have been your daughter in law and the mother to your granddaughter Jasmine. I will always remember you as an easygoing person, always positive and smiling, if you were not taking a nap on a chair somewhere you were out doing something. I know you are resting easy now amongst a most joyful place. My hope and prayer is for the family to be in fellowship as they remember you in celebration of your life!

"Hello there Nataliah", were the words Papy would receive me with when I was young and would go by and visit with my Step Dad Lloyd, my sister Jasmine and my mom. Always will be some of the most blissful memories for me! From you having us help you take off your boots, to us walking in through the sliding door that led us to your bedroom where you had some of the BEST reclining chairs where you'd watch your games! Always had a smile on your face and you were always soo sweet! Rides in your Cadillac while listening to your wise words were always my favorite! My condolences to my sister, my step dad Lloyd and the entire family! May God bless you all with the strength you all need to get through this hard time! Papy may you rest easy. With love and a tight hug Natalia!
