About	CAVITT JOHN HAMILTON "HAMP" Age 66, a Crescent resident most of his life, passed away on Thursday, June 1, 2017, at Kane Glen Hazel. He was born in Sewickley on April 9, 1951. He was preceded in death by his father, John Cavitt.

Hamp breathed music. He wrote it, played it, sang it, all on his guitar and he listened constantly to Bob Dylan, Jonny Horton, and John Cougar Melancamp. A traveler, especially enjoying New Mexico, he spent time at the Porter Ranch and bought new cowboy boots every trip. Loving road trips and hunting, he ventured to Canada where he shot his first and only bear. He will be greatly missed by his loving family and his extended "adopted" family at Kane Glen Hazel.
