Obituary of Bradley Michael Hamilton

Bradley Michael Hamilton touched the lives of countless family members and friends. His untimely passing on May 28, 2024, leaves a void that can never be filled.

Bradley’s family includes his mother, Amy Hamilton, and his sisters, Amanda (Frank) Duren and Jessica Hamilton (Benjamin Brunelle). His niece, Addison Echternacht, and nephews, Mason Echternacht and Matthew Brunelle, were dear to his heart.

Bradley’s love for life was evident in every conversation. Whether discussing shared memories, random facts, or his passion for Blazers, Corvettes, or anything with four wheels, he radiated enthusiasm and passion. His quick humor and sharp mind made him a delightful companion, leaving lasting impressions on everyone fortunate enough to encounter him.

Bradley’s intelligence and wit were his trademarks which left everyone around him both entertained and enlightened. His infectious humor echoed through countless gatherings, brightening even the dullest days. His jokes became legendary among friends and family.

Bradley’s professional journey led him to ThermoKing, where he worked as a dedicated service advisor. His colleagues and superiors admired his work ethic, problem-solving skills, and commitment to continuous improvement. His evaluation included remarks regarding the fact that he set “high standards for himself” which were “reflected in his job performance.”

Bradley was preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Joyce and Robert Plunkett, and his paternal grandparents, Barbara and George Hamilton. Their memories intertwine with Bradley’s, a testament to the enduring bonds of family.

A celebration of life will be held at Bennett Spring State Park, Shelter B, located at 26250 Highway 64A, Lebanon, MO 65536, on Thursday, June 27th from 3 to 7 PM.

In honor of Bradley’s spirit, we turn to the words of William Ernest Henley’s poem “Invictus,” a verse that resonated deeply with him:

“I am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soul.”

May Bradley rest in peace, forever etched in our hearts.
