Hamilton
J. Bisbee, 76, of Ponte Vedra Beach passed away on January 7, 2013. He was
born on February 12, 1936 in Sanford, Florida. Hamilton graduated in 1958
with a business degree from Florida State University, where he attended on
a football scholarship and played baseball. He was also a member of Alpha
Tau Omega fraternity. Following graduation, Hamilton enjoyed an
accomplished and successful executive business, entrepreneurial and
consulting career spanning five decades. Starting in sales with the
Travelers Insurance Company in Jacksonville in 1960, he eventually moved to
the Rourke Eno Paper Company, gaining successive promotions in sales,
distribution and management until his appointment to president in 1980. He
assumed the same role for Houston, Texas-based Monarch Paper, and in 1986,
returned to Florida as CEO of the Unijax Company in Jacksonville.
Recognizing his entrepreneurial instincts and turnaround expertise,
Hamilton purchased the Coastal Plastics Corporation in Jacksonville in
1989, ultimately selling the company. He then acquired Drummac, Inc. in
1995, eventually serving as a board director until last year. Prior to
retiring, he established a successful consulting practice, advising
manufacturing companies in a variety of industries. A member of the
Sawgrass Country Club, Maggie Valley Club & Resort and Maggie Valley Men s
Golf Association, Hamilton was a scratch golfer who won countless club
tournaments and had many hole-in-ones over the years. Active in the two
communities in which he resided, his board positions included the Persimmon
Condominium Homeowner s Association, SouthTrust Bank/ Jacksonville,
International Paper Advisory Board, Jacksonville University, and Athletes
Against Drugs. As fiercely proud Seminole, he rarely missed a home game in
more than 50 years and was a member of the Florida State Varsity Club.
Hamilton was an avid skier and a skilled hunter. He recently joined the
Florida Writers Association and enjoyed writing short stories. An outgoing
man with a sharp wit who loved to tell jokes and never blew the punch line,
Hamilton will be dearly missed by his family and friends. He is survived by
his children Christopher Bisbee (Jennifer) and Ashley Bisbee Rea;
grandchildren Alexander and Leah Bisbee and Charlotte and Anna Rea; sister
Beatrice Geib; nieces Louise and Lynn Geib; Carol Hadley, the mother of his
children and many extended family members and dear friends. He was
predeceased by his parents, Hamilton J. Bisbee, Sr. and Elmina Bisbee.
