On September 7th, 2008, the body of Tom Hamilton was found in a wooded area near his residence in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. He had been missing since October of 2006.

He was born September 11, 1953 and was the son of Thomas and Dorothy Hamilton of Estherville, Iowa.

He graduated from Estherville High School in 1972.
