Elizabeth A. "Liz" Hamilton

Detroit, MI - Elizabeth “Liz” A. Hamilton, 62, passed away unexpectedly at her Detroit, MI home on October 25, 2022. 

Liz was born August 23, 1960, the oldest child of James and Patricia Davis in Warren, OH, where she was raised and lived most of her life. She was a 1978 graduate of Howland High School, and she worked for nearly thirty years at General Motors, including GM Lordstown, GM Fairfax, and Factory Zero/GM Detroit-Hamtramck. 

Liz was an avid fiber artist, and could always be seen knitting or crocheting. She was unique, a strong-willed and opinionated woman, a doting grandmother, a lifelong David Bowie fan, a hard and loyal worker, who loved zoos, museums, and antique stores.

She is preceded in death by her father, James Davis, and is survived by her mother, Patricia Davis; five siblings, Rebecca (David) Fox, Barbara (Roger) Orsinelli, Jennifer (James) Lewellyn, Cynthia Davis, and James (Sandra) Davis; her loving husband of 33 years, Eric Hamilton; her four children, Justin Davis, Matthew (Ashley), Kathryn, and Isabelle (Kelsey); one grandson, Colin; and many nieces and nephews.

Liz’s family will honor her with private services.

Local arrangements have been entrusted to the Peter Rossi & Son Memorial Chapel of Warren.
