Guest Book
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Samuel Anthony Galvan, a beloved son and dedicated friend, who left this world too soon on January 2, 2026, at the age of 35. Samuel was born on August 17, 1990, in Hobbs, New Mexico.
Samuel was a proud high school graduate and found his calling as an Equipment Operator. He was deeply proud of his family and the values of family and community were central to his life.
Samuel's warm spirit and infectious laughter touched the lives of everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. He had an innate ability to lift others up, and his kindness will be sorely missed by his family and friends.
A public viewing will take place at the Heritage Funeral Home of the Big Bend Chapel on January 9, 2026, at 1:00 PM, allowing all who knew and loved Samuel to pay their respects and celebrate his life.
In this difficult time, we invite you to remember Samuel not only for the grief of his loss but also for the joy he brought into our lives. May his memory forever shine brightly in our hearts.
