Samuel Myers Obituary

Visit the Sawyer-George Funeral Home website to view the full obituary.
Samuel Myers Jr went to be with our Loving Lord and Savior after a valiant battle with an aggressive cancer on December 7th, 2023.  He was 51 years old. Sam was born on October 29th, 1972 to Sam and Linda. Sam graduated from Calallen High School in 1991 and continued to be a Wildcat fan throughout his life. Sam married the love of his life, Kala Walker on February 11th, 1995, and they made their home in Corpus Christi Texas, where they lived a very simple life, focused on their family.  Sam was a loving father to daughter Samantha Lyn and son Seth Austin.  When Sam married Kala, he married into a family full of love.  I am sure there were times, when it was overwhelming, the noise and chaos, and many times you would see Sam sitting off to the side just laughing at all of the shenanigans. If you know the Walker family, you KNOW what we mean.  The last few years of his life, Sam and Kala lived on her parent's property, which was such a God send especially when he got so sick.  Sam would tell anyone that would listen, how awesome his in-laws were. He was not lying! Sam loved to take his kids to experience all the things. Concerts, wrestling matches, and sporting events. One would pop up and off they would go.  He loved to watch wrestling with Seth and Basketball with Sammi.  Sam has been an avid Kansas City Chiefs fan, long before Mahomes was even born! He loved to collect Chiefs memorabilia. Sam worked for Bay Ltd for 24 years. He was a dedicated employee, who took pride in his company. He was fortunate enough to be able to work almost up until the very end of his life.  Over the years, he made many friendships and many memories with all the guys at Bay.  Sam was a spiritual man who shared God’s love with others. He spent many years teaching Sunday School at Annaville Baptist Church. Though he had a tough exterior, his heart was of gold. He would never hesitate to give his last to someone in need.  His family takes great comfort in knowing that Sam knew Jesus and that we will see him again one day. Those left behind to cherish Sam’s memory are his devoted wife of 28 years, Kala Myers. His daughter Samantha Lyn (James), his unborn first granddaughter EJ, and his son Seth Austin.  His parents Sam and Linda Myers,  and his siblings Athena Willieford and Lisa Myers.  His loving in-laws Roy and Sherry Walker, his brothers and sisters-in-law Roy Walker, Jett Walker (Shauna), and Kelsey Haldeman (Jeremy). His nieces and nephews are Colton, Camden, Jace, Caroline, Cassidy, and Miles.  His goofy but lovable dog Baxter will miss him so much, and we will think of Sam every time we see that silly dog!  He has a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends who will also miss Sam so very much.
  Visitation will be Sunday, December 10, 2023, from 3:30 pm-5:30 pm at Sawyer-George Funeral Home. Viewing will be Monday, December 11, 2023, at 9:00 am at Annaville Baptist Church with the Funeral Service to follow at 10 am.
