HOPE LYTTON OBITUARY
Peachtree City, Georgia - Hope Hamilton Lytton
went home to be with her heavenly Father on May 10, 2023. She was born to the
late Bobby Hamilton and the late Helen Octavia Hamilton on April 20, 1957, in
Pascagoula, MS.
Hope grew up in Mississippi. She had a close-knit
family and always said she was the favorite as the only daughter! Her beloved
gulf coast never left her heart and she enjoyed many trips to be near the
water, go fishing and enjoy the salt air.
Hope graduated from Pascagoula High School in 1975
and attended Mississippi State University where she was a member of Chi Omega
sorority. After graduation, she got the bug to travel and applied to be a
flight attendant with Delta Air Lines.
It was at Delta that she met the love of her life,
Brad. They married and enjoyed their airline careers beginning in New Orleans,
LA.
After the birth of their only son, Jordan Houston
Lytton, they moved and settled in Peachtree City, GA in 1987.
Hope and Brad were gracious hosts and frequently
entertained in their lovely home. They enjoyed their many friendships, supper
club dinners, involvement in their community and traveling to many beach
destinations as a family. They were also active in their church, the local Boy
Scouts and many activities Jordan was involved in. Hope also participated in
charitable work with the local Beta Sigma Phi sorority and other organizations
in town. She was always willing to help with fundraisers and events to raise
money for various charities.
Hope had a love and knack for decorating. With a
friend, she dabbled in an interior design business and took great care making
her lovely house a warm and inviting home. Through the years, she helped many
of her close friends do the same by taking them shopping and helping with
design and decor ideas.
When Brad battled cancer for ten years, his
attitude and upbeat personality never ceased to amaze her and their family.
Brad passed away at home in August 2018, with Hope by his side. She continued
to mourn his passing but celebrated the wonderful times they shared in their 35
years of marriage.
Hope will be deeply missed and long celebrated by
her family and friends. The one common attribute everyone shared about Hope was
that she had a heart of gold. She never missed the opportunity to make and take
a delicious dish to those who needed a gift of food.
She was a southern Belle who would regale her time
as a beauty queen and would drag her crown out if you wanted to see it! She
would give you anything she had and was always willing to share her time,
beautiful smile and quick wit with those she loved. She was an attentive and
loving mother and eventually a grandmother to their only grandchild, Jace
Benjamin Lytton.
She is preceded in death by her mother, father,
brother Raymond and devoted husband, Brad. She is survived by her son and
grandson; step mother Frances, Lucedale, MS; brother Bobby, Pascagoula, MS;
step sister, Anne Wilson (Wayne), Pascagoula and stepbrother, Phil Howell
(Gwen), Lafayette, LA; her cousin Jasmin Clark, Meadville, MS; niece and
nephew, Misti Perkins and Chad Hamilton. She is also survived by brother-in-law
Jeff (Bernie) and his family, Bedford, IN. Additionally, she is survived by
special friend, Skip Cashman.
A service will be held at a later date in
Barrancas National Cemetery, NAS Pensacola, FL.

~ IN MEMORY ~
DL Capt. Lewis Bradley
‘Brad’ Lytton
August 22, 1950 - August 17, 2018
…..retired Delta pilot
Captain Brad Lytton, nearing his 68th birthday. Captain Lytton joined Delta Air Lines 05-18-1979.
I used to fly with Hope at Delta. I was contemporary of Brad as a Delta pilot. Hope was the epitome of a professional Flight Attendant. She was beautiful with a wonderful outgoing personality, always encouraging and supportive of fellow flight crew. She was extremely capable and competent professionally with a unique ability to deal with any situation that might arise in the cabin. If she was on your crew, you didn’t need to be concerned that things might get out of hand. She and Brad were a match made in airline heaven. All who knew them could feel their love almost as if it was inevitable. Knowing both she and Brad are gone leaves a huge void for those who remain but if Hope and Brad are now reunited for eternity, then that should give us comfort.
ReplyDeleteI will pray for her loved ones as they grieve alongside all who knew Hope. She was special even among the special.
Sincerely,
Scott Coleman MSY
