As Holly's best friend growing up I spent a lot of time at the Bigger's home, Sammy taught me how to drive a "4 in the floor" in his prize Corvette. After that Holly and took that car for a "joy" ride, I drove and dropped the pressure plate from riding the clutch! I know this because when I told him what I had done he took me to the shop and explained pressure plates and clutches. I never rode the clutch again. You were an awesome big brother and friend!R.I.P. Sammy!

I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved husband and father. I think yall know how much I thought of Sammy. He was one of a kind!! Always had a smile and always funny. I know he will be missed so much. I wish there was something I could say to help take the pain away, but there is nothing I can do. God has the ability to hold you in the palm of his hand and give you the comfort that only HE knows how to give. I pray for your peace and comfort, and I will always be here for you. Love you.
