Donnetta Angeline Poston Hamilton, born May 23, 1948, to Theodore and Annie Poston of Richmond, California, died peacefully Friday, March 23, 2018, at the age of 69.
Born in Berkeley, she was a resident of San Mateo County for most of her life. Donnetta graduated from Ravenswood High School in 1966. She then received her AA in economics from the College of San Mateo in 1968.
Donnetta began her career with Wells Fargo Bank in 1971 and retired in 2008 as a real estate loan supervisor.
In 1977, Donna, as she was known by family, married her high school buddy, Gary Hamilton. She welcomed Gary’s daughter Rasean to their union, and then gave birth to their son Jason. Wanting to complete her family, Donna then welcomed another addition: Jermaine. Donna was a devoted sister and mother. She took an active interest in the pursuits of her siblings and her children, always offering moral support and guidance.
Everyone loved Donnetta! She will be greatly missed by all her family and friends. A quiet hour and funeral service will be 10 a.m. Saturday, April 14, at Crippen & Flynn Mortuary in Redwood City, California.
