Yvette Jane Hamilton Obituary (1955 - 2026)

Yvette Jane Hamilton passed away on Saturday - July 18, 2026 surrounded by the love and presence of her children and sister. To know her was to know joy. She was deeply loved by everyone who had the privilege of knowing her, and her bright spirit had a way of lighting up every room she entered. Her laugh was infectious, her happiness was genuine, and she often spoke about just how much she loved her life. She truly lived with a joyful heart. She was the life of the party. She loved to dance, listen to music, and read, and more recently found joy in crafts and expressing her creativity. She also had a special love for seashells, the beach, and all things beach-related. Within her family, she held many special titles. She was lovingly known as the “favorite aunt,” but above all else, she was the best mother in the world. She wasn’t just a mother, she was “Mommy” to all of her children, no matter how old they became. She was, and always will be, our Mommy. Whenever one of her children was sad or facing a difficult time, she would do anything she could to “turn our frowns upside down.” She had a special way of bringing comfort, happiness, laughter, and unconditional love to her family. She was truly the heart of her family. Her beautiful spirit will continue to live on through those she loved. Each of her children inherited different pieces of her personality; her love, her happiness, her humor, and her joy and through them, parts of her light will continue to shine. She was preceded in death by her parents, Anthony and Hilda, and her sister, Yolanda. She leaves to cherish her memory her sister, Yvonne; her three children, Dionne, Nina, and Lucas; her three grandchildren, Halee, Lorenzo, and Brook; her great-grandchild, Carlee; and the many family members and friends whose lives were made brighter simply by knowing and loving her. A Celebration of Life will be planned at a later date for immediate family and close friends. In lieu of flowers, those who feel it in their hearts are encouraged to make a donation in her memory to the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation. Her light shined brightly in this world, and the love and joy she gave so freely will live on in the hearts of all who knew her.
