Our family spent many years at The Sea Island Inn. Our favorite part of the trip was meal time. Sam was an institution at Sea Island. Always a gentleman and with a great sense of humor. Our children will never forget his kindness and gentle disposition. We will dearly miss him but will always cherish the memories of those years at Myrtle Beach. Our deepest condolences go to the Chestnut family.
