I am saddened to see that Samuel passed away. We went to elementary school together and I happened to run into him a few months ago. He was going through a hard time but was determined to get through it. My heart goes out to his family.

Samuel was a very sweet soul. Always had a smile on his face. Always willing to give a hand out to and for anyone. That boy sure did love his mother. Very sad to lose such a sweet person like Samuel.
