Obituary
Age 85, met his Savior and Lord face to face on Sunday evening, May 29, 2022. Ken (Doc) was born in Stewartsville, NJ, on July 29, 1936, the son of Charles Lester and Katherine Gladys (Koch) Hamlin. He married Phyllis Ann Johnson on August 20, 1959. She preceded him in death in 1994. On June 21, 1999, he married Priscilla Tkachuk-Schmidt who survives him. Doc proudly served his nation as part of the United States Air Force. He was a 1968 graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic and worked for many years in his own chiropractic practice, retiring in June, 2000. Besides his wife Doc is survived by his children, Caralyn Marie (Larry Wedel) Hamlin, Sally Ann (Scott) Carpenter, Kenneth Charles Hamlin, Troy Clayton Hamlin; grandson, Nathan; and countless friends. Besides his first wife, he was preceded in death by a granddaughter, Chelsea; and his parents.
I’m saddened to hear of this loss! I remember Dr. Hamlin well. I pray for all the close survivors; Carolyn, Sally, Ken Jr and Troy. I pray you’ll feel comfort in as much as you can have it at such a time, from the Holy Spirit. May you find your own way to walk the valley and that you’ll remember the life and not the death of Dr. Hamlin. Prayers to all.
