Sam was a true patriot so it comes to no surprise that Independence Day was his favorite holiday for the love he had of his country. Sam was of Baptist faith and enjoyed squirrel hunting, deer hunting and freshwater fishing. He always found ways to keep himself busy. He was a very loving man who always put his family first and will be greatly missed by his family and friends.

The family wishes to thank the doctors, nurses, and staff at Keesler Medical Center for all of their loving care trying to save his life.
