Joe C. Hamilton, 83, of Manassas Park, Virginia, passed away on August 15, 2025. He grew up in Clintwood, VA and attended Clintwood High School when he wasn’t out in the woods, hunting and fishing. Joe proudly served in the United States Army for almost three years before beginning a long and dedicated 30-year career as a butcher for Safeway, from which he retired. He met the love of his life, Barbara Hamilton, while working there and was married for what would have been 40 years this upcoming November.

He was a simple man who loved the outdoors and took pride in the small joys of life, Joe could often be found bird watching in his favorite chair on the driveway, mowing the grass, tending to his plants, or washing his car. In the cool months you could find him watching his Dallas Cowboys lose more than they won, watching Nascar races or any other sport on TV. More than anything, he loved spending time with his grandchildren, who were the light of his life.

He was preceded in death by his father, Carson Hamilton; his mother, Dollie Stanley; and his beloved wife, Barbara Hamilton.

Joe is survived by his daughter Kelly (and husband Josh), his son Steven, nine grandchildren — Hannah, Autumn, Cheyenne, Gracelyn, Dakota, Logan, Jensen, and Nolan — as well as two great-grandchildren, with one more on the way. Joe will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who had the pleasure of knowing him.

A Memorial Gathering for Joe will be held on Friday, August 29, 2025 from 6-8 PM at Pierce Funeral Home in Manassas, VA. A second Memorial Gathering for Joe will be held September 6, 2025 at 11 AM at Mullins Funeral Home in Clintwood, VA.

Elizabeth Clara Rose of Clintwood, Virginia, age 64, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, August 3rd at Johnson City Medical Center. She was a lifelong resident of Dickenson County. Liz was one of a kind. She loved spending time with her family, going on sister dates with the girls, eating meals that Bub cooked, watching her reality shows with Des, yapping with Beth, giving Will a hard time like only she could, or listening to her angel talk about her excursions. Anyone who had the honor of spending time with her will tell you that she always made them feel welcome. Her house was the house that many turned to when they needed a safe place to land. The running family joke is that she takes in strays. Even though our hearts are absolutely shattered, we know without a doubt that hers was finally made whole again when she was reunited with Mike.
She was preceded in death by the two great loves of her life, Larry Wayne Rose and Mikell Darryl Mullins. She was also preceded in death by her parents, Lee and Vronice Stanley; five sisters, Mary Ruth Moore, Linda Ennis, Marsha Meade, Janice Rose, and Donna Kay Triplett; several special brothers-in-law, nieces and nephews, and in-laws, George and Doris Mullins, and Mildred Rose.
Left to cherish her precious memory are her daughter, Beth Mooney, husband Will, son, Seth Mullins, fiancé Destiny Bennett, and her pride and joy, her angel, Jayde Mooney. Her sisters, Diana Plaine, Amalea Deloach, and Pam (James) Greear, a host of cherished nieces and nephews.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that you donate to your local thrift store because Liz loved finding those treasures.
Family will receive friends on Thursday, August 7th, from 5:00 PM until 7:00 PM in the Mullins Funeral Home Chapel, with a Celebration of Life service to begin at 7:00 PM

She resided in Clintwood, Virginia, with her devoted sister and caregiver, Anna Mullins. Born with Down syndrome, Lou lived a life full of pure, radiant love.

She was truly an earth angel, and her light will continue to shine through the many lives she touched.

In honor of Lou’s boundless love, the family asks that you hug someone a little tighter today, light up a room with your smile, and maybe even put on her favorite singer, Conway Twitty.
