Colton Chad Hamilton

Colton Chad Hamilton passed away unexpectedly on May 14, 2023. The only thing that brings great comfort during this time is knowing that Colton was on the lake doing exactly what he loved - fishing with friends.

Colton Chad Hamilton was born on December 30, 1994 to Philip Hamilton and Cynthia Booth in Denison, Texas. Colton was larger than life. He rarely met a stranger and he would give the shirt off his back to anyone in need. Colton had a passion for the great outdoors. He could always be found with a rod in his hand or under the hood of a car. Just knowing Colton made you a better person. He was the light in the darkness, the sun breaking through the storm, the giver of hope. Colton was a man that left his mark on the world. He touched the lives of everyone he met and has left a beautiful legacy for his three children to carry on. Our hearts will never be the same without our rock-solid husband, father, son and friend. To know Colton was to love him. So if you see a 1983 Chevy square body going down the road know Colton is smiling from above.

Colton is preceded in death by a son, Xadryan Ernst, grandparents, Tommy and Wanda Harrison, Harold Hamilton, Randy Booth Sr., uncles, Steve Hamilton and Randy Booth Jr.

Those left to carry on his legacy, wife, Cariann Hamilton, sons, Xadyn Ernst and Kamdyn Trunzler, daughter, Amiliya Hamilton, father, Philip Hamilton, mother, Cynthia McEuen and husband Bobby, brothers, Aaron Hamilton, Dylan Hamilton and wife Sylvia, Tatum Creed, sister, Payton Foreman and husband Jared, grandmother, Jonnie Friberg, grandfather, David McRae uncle CoCo, along with numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.

Please join the family on May 19, 2023 at 2:00pm in the chapel of Wise Funeral Home to celebrate and honor the life of Colton. Visitation will be prior to service starting at 12:00pm.
