Boyd David DuMont, cofounder of DuMont Brother’s Construction Company in Pawleys Island, South Carolina, passed away November 11, 2023, surrounded by his loving family. He was 65. He was born in Malone, New York, the second oldest of six children of David and K. Clare DuMont. He grew up in Potsdam, New York and began working at a young age in his father’s construction company. He learned very early in life the importance of hard work and the value of a large, loving family. Following graduating from Potsdam High School in 1976, Boyd attended Canton Agricultural and Technical College where he took courses related to the building industry. He soon started working full time in his fathers’ business and there learned the skills of all the different jobs needed to build and remodel homes. Boyd married Suzanne Griffin in 1980. They moved to South Carolina in 1982 to begin building a future for their soon to be very large family. Boyd cofounded the successful construction company, DuMont Brother’s Builders, with his father and brother, and worked tirelessly to ensure its success. The company’s success and the outstanding reputation it has in the area, is one of his greatest accomplishments. Boyd was most proud of his other major accomplishment, creating with his wife a loving and supportive family, all of whom are equally hard workers and family focused. He is survived by his children, Nathanael DuMont (Angie), Danielle Hodson (David), Griffin DuMont (Brittany), Adham DuMont (Megan), Brigette DuMont, Victoria DuMont, Noah DuMont and Katelynn DuMont, and three grandchildren, Nolan Hodson, Harper DuMont and Luke DuMont. He is also survived by his mother, K Clare DuMont, and 4 siblings, Michael DuMont, Stephen DuMont, Gregory DuMont and Jennifer Pankau. His father David DuMont and brother Matthew DuMont died before him. Boyd loved to work, but in his spare time he cherished spending time with family and friends, camping in the Adirondacks, boating, playing with his grandkids, and completing any and all chores around the house. A visitation will be held Friday November 17,2023 from 2pm-4pm at Goldfinch Funeral Home at 202 Hinnant Lane, Pawleys Island SC 29585. The family will hold a private service at a later date. In lieu of flowers, memorials can be made in his name to Amedisys Hospice, 402 Singleton Ridge Rd. Conway, SC 29526.
