Hamilton, Reginald William – Just a few weeks shy of his 91st birthday, Reg passed away peacefully on March 12, 2022 in Colchester East Hants Health Centre, Truro.
Born in Chaplin, he was a son of the late Raymond and Charlotte (Bezanson) Hamilton.
Reg is survived by his wife, Audrey Stewart-Hamilton; his sons, Hallie (Susan) and Lennie; grandchildren, Halley Jr., Cheryl (Dion), Jason (Carrie), Kelly (Sean Francois), Kamy Creelman; great-grandchildren, Lily and Leia Francois, Savannah, Brooklyn Jaycee Hamilton; also Audrey’s sons, Andrew (Sue), Darrell (Lori), Derrick (Frankie); granddaughters, Gaylynn (Matt), Dee-Ann (Dylon). Reg will also be missed by Booger and Baillie.
Besides his parents, Reg was predeceased by his first wife, Florence Brown Creelman; his stepson, Frank Creelman and his wife, Brenda; sisters, Beatrice LeBruin, Martha Rogers; brother, Raye.
Reg was a meat cutter for a number of years before an accident put him off work for a year. He then went to work for the Town of Truro for 20 plus years, a job he loved, worked hard at and made many friends. Reg loved the outdoors as you could tell by the well manicured lawns and the evenly snow-blown driveways at his Shortts Lake Road home. Reg enjoyed going to the Camp with Hallie and the boys. He looked forward to the Stewart family reunions every five years and especially the Ontario boys coming home every year for the big Thanksgiving turkey dinner put on by the Stewart boys and the long drives looking for cranberries.
Cremation has taken place.
