Just as The Times was belatedly going to press this month, we learned of the passing of Kathleen Hamilton of Parkview on October 4. Kathleen made a career out of this neighborhood, both privately and professionally.
She and her husband Alan renovated several homes in Parkview.
She also was one of the principals of the Central West End Savings and Loan, which became the Central West End Bank.
She ultimately became the president of the bank, a significant accomplishment in the male-dominated banking business.
Her committed service to the many causes which advance the quality of life in our community from the arts to children’s services are well known. Beyond her professional and civic achievements, she will be remembered for her genuine sweetness, generosity and easy friendliness. One couldn’t feel like a stranger around her and she lifted the spirits of all those she encountered. Many a neighborhood event was brightened by Kathleen’s prowess at the piano.
The Times extends sympathy to Alan, their children, Daniel, Holly and Andrew, and to the entire family.
We hope that there is comfort in the affection and admiration that so many have for Kathleen.
