Sam Hagan

I am forever grateful to have had the great privilege of meeting, and singing with Sam Hagan. My heart was thrice shattered upon learning that director Alan Brown had passed in late 2025, along with Monsignor James Fennessey (in the fall of 2025), only to learn of Sam's passing the year prior. This world was blessed to witness the kindness, generosity and extraordinary talent of this gentle soul. My sincere condolences to Marti and Sam's family. Thank you heavenly Father for sharing this man...

It´s Christmas season and I´ve just turned on spotify`s version of handles Messiah. Of course then that led me to google sam Hagan and see if he had some performances on YouTube. I was sad to find this obituary. I knew him in the 1980s in Atlanta at St. Luke´s. He was such a nice man. And what a voice! So glad I got to know him. blessings to you and your family.

So sorry to hear of the loss of a wonderful man and great neighbor. Our hearts go out to Marti, his beloved wife of so many years. Our deepest condolences to Marti and the rest of his family. May he rest in peace. Yuzana and John

When Sam Hagan sang, it felt like the world paused its spinning, just long enough for heaven itself to lean down and listen. With a voice that soared effortlessly, rich and pure as morning sunlight breaking through mist, Sam didn´t simply perform-he elevated the souls of those around him. He puckered his lips on high notes, as he belted out frequencies through the heavens, where he surely will be going. I remember clearly the day of my wedding in 1982, young and dumb I was, nerves frayed,...

I just saw this and was shocked and saddened to hear of Sam´s sudden passing. Jus too young, he had so much more music and talent that needed to be shared.

Sam graciously agreed to sing at the memorial mass for my mother at the end of January. My condolences to all of his family. I have not doubt that he is singing in heaven.

Sam tore down barriers at Westminster ... by being himself. Gifted teacher. Gifted singer. Gifted human. He brightened every room. Grateful he sang at my father's memorial. Blessings, good servant to Him.
