To the family of Mr. Sam Mitchell; Dear family, I am deeply and sincerely sorry to hear of the passing of your Mother and so soon after, your father. God bless all of you and give you the strength and power to carry on their legacy. Please forgive me for not attending their home going.I apologize to all of you because I have known most of you, if not all, most of my life. Again I apologize and God bless all of you.

So sorry to hear of his passing. My husband bowled with Sam for several years and he was so much fun to be around. He will be greatly missed.

Dear Family, You remain in our prayers. I always admired Uncle Sam. How thankful I was to have spoken with him on Sunday afternoon. I often thought of him in patriarchal terms, as a family elder -- a godly man, a faithful man, a family man, a loving man, and a friend. He is now enjoying his reward -- with his Lord and with Aunt Nita. Uncle Sam and Aunt Nita -- what a legacy of genuine and godly love and marriage! This world is a better place because they were here.
Love, Terry and family.

I use to wait on Mr. Mitchell when I worked at a local bank. What a joy and piece of sunshine he was!! Our town lost a very special person. I am so sorry for your loss. Since he knew the Lord may you find comfort that he is walking streets of gold with that big smile of his holding your mothers hand!

Prayers and condolences to Betty and the Mitchell family

The Sims family was blessed to have been a neighbor of Sam and Nita for 34 years. They were kind, compassionate and a wonderful example of selflessness. I watched their grandchildren grow up and today I share great grandchildren with them since Ryan married their granddaughter Channing. It is with a heavy heart that we have lost both Nita and Sam but I can't imagine one without the other and obviously our gracious Father in heaven felt the same way. My love and prayers go out to the...
