Samuel Chilton Obituary

Augusta, GA – Entered into rest on Sunday, February 15, 2026, Samuel Chilton, 35.

Samuel loved to travel and despised cutting the grass. He was a great surfer and fisherman, enjoying his time at the beach. New Smyrna Beach in Florida being his favorite. When he was home, he could often be found listening to music and watching many movies, of which he knew all the actors and actresses.

Family members include his parents: Douglas and Simona Chilton; his brother: James Chilton; and many cousins.
