My Dearest Korey family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Sammy and I had a lot of great times together in Mountaintop, then he helped me so much when my very first apartment flooded in Edwardsville. I could just see him on the side of the building, as I handed him electronics and money that I was saving up for a major purchase. After that, we worked together for Mark at Desi's in Dallas. He was so trustworthy and helpful to be so close during this tragic flood at my apartment in Edwardsville. He will be missed very much by so many and never be forgotten. God bless and my sincerest condolences. Please let me know if there will be calling hours.
Sincerely, Heather Allabaugh and family
