Thomas Glenn Hamilton

Thomas Glenn Hamilton, "Tommy," 69, died at his home in Chester, VA, on Tuesday, August 5, 2025. He joins his parents, Allen and Girty Hamilton, in heaven. Preceded in death by sister, Betty Hamilton Lee, and brothers, Donnie Hamilton and Billy Hamilton. He is survived by Peggy Sue Hamilton; son, Thomas "Tommy" Hamilton (Jennifer) of Charlotte, North Carolina; daughter, Amy Sanchez-Hamilton (Mike) of Pennsylvania; stepdaughter, Frances Ann Boller Hadaway (Rob) of Alexandria, Virginia; stepson, Bobby Boller (Athena) of Midlothian, Virginia; brothers, Kenny Hamilton (Lorreta) of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and Allen Hamilton (Terry) of Prince George, Virginia; and sister, Diane Campbell of Prince George, Virginia. He leaves behind grandchildren, numerous nieces and nephews, and extended family members who will miss him dearly.

Tommy worked at Great Dane for 25 years, Virginia Truck Center for 20 years, and Mid-Atlantic for 3 years where he recently retired. He was a member of First Congregational Christian Church in Hopewell, Virginia, where he served as a trustee and usher.

Over the years, he enjoyed fishing, spending time with friends and family, cutting grass on his riding lawn mower, always helping family, friends, and neighbors without a moment of hesitation. He loved watching PHILADELPHIA EAGLES play football. In years past, you could find him fishing, bowling, medal detecting, playing poker with friends, or playing the guitar and singing in church. He was a hard worker and shared laughter with family, friends, and those he worked with.

Thomas Glenn Hamilton's absence will be felt by many close for his radiant smile, generous heart, and unwavering kindness. Tommy never met a stranger in his life. He was known to strike up conversations with just about anybody, and he was always willing to help others in need. His laughter was contagious, and his lighthearted spirit made every moment spent with him feel special. His legacy is one of relentless hard work, silent kindness, and deep devotion to the people and things he loved.

A memorial service will be held for Tommy at First Congregational Christian Church at a later date.
