Robert Hamilton

June 20, 1962 — May 5, 2025

Sioux Falls

Robert (Bob) John Hamilton was born June 20, 1962 in Aberdeen, SD. He was the oldest of 5 children. He was later adopted along with two sisters by Tipp and Mort Hamilton of rural Midland and raised on the family ranch near Robb's Flat. His early memories were being flown in a personally owned plane to his new home on the ranch. He was raised learning a strong work ethic, the value of hard work and a lot about the cattle industry. Bob attended country school,

TF Riggs High School and later Stanley County High School graduating in the class of 1980. Prior to his graduation, his high school sweetheart, Lynelle Boyer gave birth to their daughter, Jessica Lynn on January 24, 1980.

Bob was married to Suzi Solem in 1982 and son Kellen was born in 1984. After reconnecting with his childhood friend, Anita Sinkey, he found the love of his life "Sweet Annie". They were married July 2, 2011 and had 7 amazing years of marriage before she passed.

Bob spent many years as an over-the-road trucker and saw most of the country and had many stories to tell about his days on the road. He was a jokester and always had a smart remark for any situation.

Bob cherished the time he had with his daughter and grandchildren after connecting with Jessica in 2018. He was an avid sports fan and became a Northwestern Wildcat fan quickly and enjoyed following his three grandchildren's accomplishments on the court and field.

Bob is survived by daughter Jessica (Roger) Halvorson, grandchildren Brooklinn, Brecken, and Brenna of Mellette, SD; his good friend Judy Elbers of Sioux Falls and sisters Renee Hurt, Rita Hamilton, Rae Ellen Daily, and Stephanie Rosenbaum. He is sure to be rejoicing with his Sweet Annie in heaven along with a few good buddies he lost along the way.
