I am so saddened by this loss. He was a neighbor, friend and such a giving kind hearted person. I am so sorry I missed his service.. Couldn't find out anything ...he will be missed dearly and was a very Godly man. He helped me a lot and we talked about the Lord on my front porch a lot. Prayers for all his family and friends.

Sam was my neighbor and my friend.. Before my husband died, he was more like family. We ate meals together and just hung out. After I lost Mike to cancer last May, Sam did his best to check ok me. He missed his friend and we cried a lot together... I am glad knowing he and Mike are together again.. Telling stories I am sure.. But big Sam is surely gonna be missed here.... Gone too soon....
