What a wonderful next door neighbor - for 21 years - who took care of so many things at my house, as well as his, and the entire neighborhood.

What a beautiful funeral I attended for his daughter, LaShondra. What a magnificent funeral I attended for Sam - so many members from his family, church, friends, motorcycle friends, and worker-friends from the Water Works were there to say that Sam Benson was a great man.

He was...a friend to all. He is, and will continue...

Your memories will always be with me and Jay, I am really gonna miss you Uncle Sammy. You were a positive influence on our lives, I can only pray that you are looking down on us keeping our hearts filled with blessings. Love always and forever your niece. Brandy McSwain

THE LOVE WE HAD STAYS ON MY MIND.
I WISH YOU WERE STILL HERE WITH ME.
I WILL CHERISH THE WONDERFUL 10 YRS WE SHARED 4 EVER. YOU TRULY WERE ONE OF A KIND. FAMILY MAN, CHURCH MAN, FRIEND TO MANY AND MOST OF ALL MY SUNSHINE.
TELL ALL OUR LOVED ONES I SAID HELLO.
TOYA & JAY MISS YOU SO MUCH.

Gone too soon... (sniff, sniff)
I miss talking to him, walking with him, laughing with him, riding with him, most of all being with him. God
makes no mistakes. He only takes the best.
Good night Sammy, tell them not to crown our Saviour until I get there.
Love Always "Dorrida"

Thank you for the love and prayers you have given my family. Now our prayers are with you all and your precious beloved Dorrida. We love you and will always think of you whenever we ride. God bless now and always. Thank you for all you did to brighten and cheer us up.
