Sam was preceded in death by his father T.R. Jewell.

Sam met each day on this earth with joy and laughter. He rejoiced in the success of other and helped many people achieve their dreams.

Sam provided educational opportunities for many throughout his years as a business owner.

Sam was the proud grandfather of Sadie and called her “Sweet Pea” from the day she was born. He shared with her his great love of the outdoors, of animals and the importance of family. Sam loved deep sea fishing and shared fishing trips with many friends and family over the years.

He enjoyed the serenity the ocean offered and often said being on the ocean was where he was the most content and felt closest to God.

Although his earthly life has ended, he is now in the place he worked all of his life to be--with the Lord Jesus Christ. Anyone who truly knew Sam, knew how much he loved Jesus. Sam’s ultimate desire was to give St. Peter a coffee break at the gates of heaven.

Sam will be greatly missed by all who knew him. He will forever be loved by his family and friends. He made a difference.

Pallbearers will be Scott Colbert, Steve Oram, Tim Colbert, Billy D. Jewell, Jim Jewell, and Gary Freeman.
