Born June 14, 1952, he was the son on the late Albert and Lillian (Riggleman) Hamilton.

Dick was a graduate of Bruce High School class of 1970. He retired from Mettiki Coal after 35 years of service. He enjoyed the simple things in life and was a down to earth man.

Later in life, his grandsons were the greatest gift that life had given him. He would spend time with them doing anything they wanted to do! Practicing ball, taking rides on the tractor, and driving the four-wheeler, were just some of the things they enjoyed together. Some of his greatest memories were the family vacations to Oak Island, NC.
