Samuel, we will miss you,,what I remember most about you as we were all growing up together, was your quiet and observing spirit. My siblings at that time were all older than you so what I remember most was your quiet but observant spirit which was like your father,,my uncle James who was married to my mom's sister, Frances. We were all a very close knit family and a family of strong Christian women and men. My mom Willie Mae asked that we keep in touch through our family reunions, which my mom and aunt Leola started before the passed. Your mom only attended a few family reunions before she passed away, but her wish along with My mom and aunt Leola's wish was that we remember where we came from and always make Christ the center of our lives. We lost touch, but during our reunions we always remembered the ones that were not present. You and your siblings, Aunt Leola and her family and Aunt Lucille and her family. We were a God fearing group and I see you, Randy, and Ramona all accepted your call to become Ministers of The Gospel. God Loved you Sammy ❤️ and we,, All your family loved you too. Rest In Peace, Humbly Submitted: Frances Davis
