To say Sam lived an adventurous life is an understatement. Daily, he taught those around him to enjoy every moment. His world was filled with friends, laughter, and hilarious stories.

He attended the University of Arkansas and was a member of the Sigma Chi Fraternity. He earned a Bachelors Degree from The University of the Ozarks, a Masters Degree from St. Mary's University, and was a member of The United States Army. With great pride, Sam served on the City Council of Rogers. Sam worked for Rolling Oaks Hospitality and was the General Manager of La Quinta Inn and Suites, of Bentonville.
