In the quiet town of Hingham, Massachusetts, a profound sense of loss envelops the community as it mourns the unexpected passing of Todd Andrew Hamilton on December 30th, 2023. A remarkable man, Todd’s journey from his birth in Hartford, CT, on October 14th, 1968, to his influential role in the finance sector and his deep involvement in family and community life leaves an indelible mark.
Todd’s formative years were spent in Windsor Locks, CT, where he graduated from Windsor Locks High School in 1986. A gifted student-athlete, he then pursued his passion for business and finance at Bentley University.
His exceptional prowess on the soccer field earned him the titles of Scholar Athlete of the Year 1988-89 and Academic All-Conference for 1988-89 and 1989-90, setting the stage for a career marked by achievement.
Embarking on a journey in the finance and investment world, Todd began at Fidelity Investments, rapidly ascending the ranks to senior executive roles in several prestigious firms, including Natixis, New York Life, EG Shares, Grayscale Partners, and Bonaventure Partners. His magnetic enthusiasm, persuasive charm, and tireless dedication endeared him to colleagues and clients alike, establishing him as a respected figure in the financial realm.
Beyond his professional success, Todd’s life was woven with threads of athleticism. A multifaceted athlete, he was a marathon runner, a feared point guard, a skilled skier, golfer, and a pioneer of pickleball on Boston’s South Shore. His passion for sports was rivaled only by his unwavering loyalty to Boston’s sports teams, where he cheered fervently for his beloved athletes.
However, Todd’s true pride and joy lay in his family. He is survived by his loving wife, Julie Budd Hamilton, and their three children, Benjamin, Lillie, and Luke.
Todd’s commitment to his family went beyond the ordinary; he was deeply involved in every aspect of his children’s lives, from coaching lacrosse to being a devoted spectator at their games, competitions, and dance recitals. His genuine belief in and support for his children fostered a sense of love and confidence that will endure eternally.
