Diane Carol (Hiscott) Hamilton

1940-2025

Diane Carol (Hiscott) Hamilton

Diane Carol (Hiscott) Hamilton passed away Friday, March 7, 2025. She grew up in Trenton, Nova Scotia, the daughter of the late Gilbert and Marguerite (Murray) Hiscott.  She was the oldest of six siblings: Jim (Catherine), Judy (Dennis), Pearl, Brian (Janet) and Sandy. 

Throughout the years Diane gave devoted and loving support to her parents and brothers and sisters who hold her in highest respect and love.

Following High School graduation, Diane enrolled in Nurses Training at the Aberdeen Hospital in New Glasgow, Nova Scotia, graduating at the top of her class.  Her nursing skills were shown as she worked in surgery in New Glasgow followed by work in the delivery room at Grace Maternity Hospital in Halifax.

Following marriage and the raising of her children, she became involved in geriatrics and training Resident Care Workers, concluding her career as a nurse at the Wedgewood Manor in Summerside. 

Diane was an exemplary wife to her husband Rev. David and mother to her children, Lori McKendry and Scott. The Hamiltons have two grown grandchildren, Cody and Tyler McKendry, of whom they are very proud. She was predeceased by son-in-law, Mike McKendry.

A wonderful cook and homemaker, she was the perfect hostess and these skills were put to good use not only at home but in the congregations she served with her husband, Rev. David, in First United, Trenton, NS; Spring Park United in Charlottetown, PEI; Portland United in Saint John, NB; and in Trinity United Church in Summerside, PEI.

 Charm is deceitful, beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.  Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gates. Proverbs 31:31
