I will truly miss Mr. Sam. He was kind to me and to my students. He will leave a hole in our community at Coalmont. We are thankful for his life. To his family: thank you for sharing him with us. He was a true treasure. A friend. A historian. A listener. God Bless Mr. Sam.
We were so sad to hear this morning of Sam's passing. All of Coalmont is in mourning over the loss of our dear friend and neighbor. Sam cared about everyone and was so kind. We will always remember him and will miss going to his store and hearing his cheerful "Come in and sit down" He always asked about how our family was. He was one of the first people that welcomed me to the mountain in 1978 when David brought me here. He will be sorely missed but remembered.
