It is with heavy
hearts we announce the sudden passing of Ralph Leslie Hamilton, 87, of
North River, on Saturday, March 25, 2023 at the Halifax Infirmary,
QEII Heath Sciences Centre, Halifax. Born in Minasville, he was a son
of the late Edward Reynolds Hamilton and Greta Bell (Hill)
Hughes.
Ralph spent much of
his early years in the transport industry, and in shipping/receiving
at Yould’s Limited, and later self-employed as a carpenter.
He was a dedicated community member and a founding member of the North
River Fire Brigade. He was a Cub Leader with the Boy Scouts of Canada,
and held several titles within the Welsh Pony and Cobb Society of
Canada. His ponies occupied most of his time during his later years,
both showing and judging.
Ralph was a family man
through and through. He was a devoted husband to his wife Jean and had
been her primary care giver for the past 10 plus years since her
stroke. Ralph loved being involved and helping his children and
grandchildren with anything they needed and was always interested in
what was going on in their lives.
Ralph is survived by
his loving wife of 64 years, Francis Jean (Carter) Hamilton; daughter,
Donna Curtis, Valley; sons, Roger, North River, and Neil (Roxanne),
Crowes Mills. He is also survived by his brother, Cyril (Ailene);
