IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Stuart "Tred"
Frear Hawkins, Iii
August 3, 1971 – December 14, 2017
Stuart "Tred" Frear Hawkins, III, 46, died on December 14 at his home. He was born August 3, 1971 in Hampton, Virginia and was a lifelong resident of the Peninsula. Educated in local schools, and member of the Hampton High School Class of 1983 for three years, he graduated from Christchurch School in 1983 and then attended Old Dominion College.
Tred had a keen interest in the restaurant business and hoped to have his own place one day. Through the years, he was employed at several different restaurants on the Peninsula, but his favorite was the Hampton County Grill where he was a member of the staff for many years before his health prevented further employment.
Skateboarding, golf, surfing, fishing, watching TV football, and attending concerts, especially those of Phish and Jerry Garcia and Friends, were his favorite leisure activities.
Tred was predeceased by his father, Stuart Frear Hawkins, II, and his grandparents, Stuart and Maude Hawkins and Edward and Blanche Haldeman. He is survived by his mother, Carolyn H. Hawkins and sister, Jennifer H. Conner and her husband, Eric.
The family wishes to thank the owners and staff of County Grill for their many kindnesses and to also thank the doctors and staffs at the Sentara Complex and the Riverside Critical Care Unit. The family especially thanks the Riverside Rehabilitation Institute located on Chesapeake Ave. for the recent care and encouragement Tred received while there.
A memorial service will be held at 3:00 PM Thursday, December 21 in the Chapel of R. Hayden Smith Funeral Home at 245 S. Armistead Avenue in Hampton. The burial will be private.
