Cora M. Hamilton
Cora Mae Hamilton, 84, Augusta, retired cosmetologist, died Wednesday, Oct. 18, 2000.
Her graveside service will be 1:30 p.m. Monday, Oct. 23, at Resthaven Cemetery, Oklahoma City, Okla.
On Oct. 18, 2000, the Augusta Regional Medical Center became the embarkment point for a journey to a higher plain of existence when Cora Mae Hamilton graduated from her earthly school of life after completing 84 years of faithful study, hard work, and dedicated service to her family, friends, and career.
Cara Mae was born May 31, 1916 into a large, rural farm family that worked and resided a few miles outside of Cleveland, Okla. Her mother, Lillian Corzine (Taylor), was the daughter of Kansas natives who staked their claim in Oklahoma during the great land run. Her father, Jerome Taylor, had spent his premarital years traveling the country as a coal miner, lumberjack, and railroad worker before settling in Oklahoma.
During her early years, Cora’s life-long values of personal
strength, religious faith, love, honesty, responsibility, commitment to family, and dedication to duty were formed while sharing a small, four-room farmhouse with her parents, two sisters, and six brothers as the family bravely toiled through many years of hard labor and self-sacrifice while reaping their very modest living from a few acres of fertile bottom-land on the banks of the Arkansas River.
Cora Taylor graduated with honors from Cleveland High School in 1934 at the age of 18; She then continued helping her family as a working homemaker and farm-hand for the next eight years.
At age 26, Cora Taylor married her “love from across the river,” Orace Chancy Hamilton.
Orace Hamilton was born in Augusta as the only child of Japies Hamilton, also born in Augusta and Florence Carmichael (Hamilton). At the age of eight, his family relocated to Osage, Okla, through his father’s employment with the KATY (MK&T) railroad.
Soon after their marriage in 1942, Cora and Orace moved to Oklahoma City, Okla, and aided the war effort by working together as aircraft mechanics at Tinker Air Force Base until near the end of World War II when Cora shifted her work effort toward becoming a homemaker and mother of two children while her husband continued on with his civilian/military career until retirement.
In 1954, Cora became a licensed cosmetologist and began a new career that would successfully span over the next 40 years as a beautician and small business owner.
After her retirement, at age 78, Cora moved to Augusta so she could be closer to her son’s family and enjoy more frequent visits with her youngest grandchild.
Cora’s earthly passing was preceded by those of her parents, her husband, both sisters, and four brothers.
To preserve her loving memory and carry on their individual earthly tasks, Cora leaves her brother, John Taylor of Springdale, Ark.; her brother, Lee Taylor of Cleveland, Okla.; her only daughter, Dianna Cox of Alex, Okla.; her only son, Brent Hamilton of Augusta; and four cherished grandsons.
Dunsford Funeral Home of Augusta will carry out final arrangements; and graveside services will be conducted at 1:30 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 23
when Cora Mae Taylor/Hamilton will be lain to rest next to her beloved husband of 38 years at Resthaven Memorial Gardens in Oklahoma City, Okla.
Cora would have wished that any memorials be made only in the form of quality of time spent with the person, place, activity, or cause that lies closest to one’s heart.
