Samuel McCray Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Dec. 24, 2016.
Sam has hooked his last fish and played his last round of golf. He served in the military and worked for Coca Cola, Scotsman Ice Machines and J. N. Blair Company. He was also the former owner of Sam & Cin's 7440 Club for 13 years. He will be missed by his mother Johnnie, his wife Cindy of 39 years, his three children Ron, Phil and Kim, 4 grandchildren Kevin, Ashley, Dustin and Nicole and 2 great-grandsons born this year, Nolan and Brody and many long time friends. He will also be greatly missed by his two dogs, Little Bear and Daisy May. He had such a wicked sense of humor which he kept throughout his illness and was always willing to give anyone a helping hand.

Miss you already Sam. You were always there for a question, some advice or just a simple laugh. You were definitely a unique man and meant the world to me. No one can replace you and you will always be a part of my life and who I am today. In many ways you were like a father to me and I'm grateful I met you. Thank you for all the chances and believing in me.
