Helen M. (Najarian) Hamilton, 87, formerly of Riverside, passed away peacefully on November 4, 2025, at the Overlook Nursing Center in Pascoag, surrounded by her loving family. She was the beloved wife of the late Philip Hamilton and the late Henry Levesque.

Born in East Providence, she was the daughter of the late Sarkis and Mary (Gostanian) Najarian. Helen lived in Riverside for 22 years and was a proud graduate of East Providence High School, Class of 1956.

Helen built a rewarding career as an Executive Assistant for Dytech Company and H&H Enterprises. A true entrepreneur at heart, she also co-owned three retail stores in Providence, Whitey’s Auction in Uxbridge, MA, and P&H Wholesale Co. in Buxton, ME before retiring in 1998.

A woman of deep faith, Helen was an active member of Windham First Church of the Nazarene in Windham, ME, where she lovingly volunteered in the children’s nursery and the church’s missionary ministries. She also enjoyed participating in activities at the Uxbridge Senior Center, where she formed many lasting friendships.

Helen’s life was centered around faith, family, and music. She found great joy in listening to her favorite songs, attending concerts, and cherishing time spent with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
She is survived by her six children: Armand J. B. Levesque of Fall River, MA; Noel R. Levesque of Douglas, MA; Timothy H. Levesque of Dudley, MA; Neil M. Levesque of Walpole, NH; Amy L. Rothrock of Uxbridge, MA; and Matthew J. Levesque of North Smithfield. She also leaves two sisters, Agnes Gomes of Bristol and Pauline Najarian of East Providence; a brother, Sarkis Najarian of Seekonk, MA; fourteen grandchildren; and three great-grandchildren. She was predeceased by her brother, Peter Najarian.

Helen will be remembered as a kind, faith-filled woman whose warmth, laughter, and devotion touched everyone who knew her.

A Celebration of Life will be held in Maine at a date and time to be announced.
