My Uncle Sam was the 'coolest'. We would always share a laugh whenever he spoke. He could make me laugh like nothing and I would often return the favor. Our family is witty anyway, but I think that I got my quick-wit from my uncle.

I am so glad that he is not in any more pain, but only wish that I could have had just a few more laughs with him. He will thoughtfully remembered and sadly missed.

Much love to Adria, Vicki and Bobby Shawn and the rest of the Sam Betton clan.

Love,

Camille

My heart goes out to Sam's family. I miss my cousin Sam. He was one of my favorite people. I always enjoyed seeing him and walking with him. May Allah bless him to enter Paradise.
Goodbye old friend; I hope to see you again.

Vickie & Family, Adria & Family ,Bobby Shawn & Family My prayers are with all of you. LOVE ,LIZ.

One of the most beautiful things about having a personal relationship with God is that we know He allows the ills of this life to crumble away until the gold inside us shines through. Those of us now left behind will have a spot of gold to remember when thoughts of you touch our hearts. Cousin Sam, Rest in Peace.

Sam was a blessing. His quiet presence and his pleasant smile will always be a part of me.
I know you will miss him. My prayer are for the entire family.

Love, Sister Vicky Talley

We will never forget Sam and the way he lived his life in a calm and dignified manner. You always had time to listen and bring a quiet to any storm. I thank you for the love you had for mother Gladys, my sister Debra and for me and Carla. I also cherish the time we talked about and listen to jazz. While most teens were dancing to whatever was top on the charts, you were introducing me to Miles and Coltrane. I thank you for that and for all you meant to me and our family. We will miss you tremendously.
Love, Danny and Carla

Adria & Family,

You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. You have my deepest condolences.

Uncle Sam was my man. He loved my Aunt Gladys dearly and helped me raise my son Isadore in manly ways. Sam was a great lover of Jazz and indeed a philosopher. Sam was an anchor in the stormy seas of this life. He will be greatly missed.

Dear Family,
What I remember most about Uncle Sam was the love he had for Aunt Gladys. He was observant, thoughtful, listened well and provided insightful advice to others when needed. He was a blessing and will be missed by many.

Sending thoughts of love and comfort to you, your family and friends. I understand that these times are very difficult even when we trust. To be with your Dad during his transition is a wonderful gift. I too had the opportunity to be with my Dad during those moments. He taught me how to live and how to move beyond life at curtain call. May your memories comfort you and the love of family and friends sustain you.
