sad news again,RIP Sam and my condolences to his family

R.I.P Sam, my condolences to your family and friends at this sad time ..

Sam was a Battalion character, well known and much liked by all. He had a cheerful demeanour, boundless enthusiasm and enormous personality.

Our thoughts and prayers are very much with his family at this time.

I remember Sam well. I was in the same Platoon as him in the Depot. A load of us from JSC Coy the Depot passed out with them in Korea 7 Pl. We gave Sam a lift home after passing out. So very sad when someone you know or have known passes on. RIP Sam. Gone but never forgotten.

Deepest Condolences to family, friends and fellow comrades from London Branch RWFCA. RIP Sam!

All members of the Royal Welch Fusiliers Comrades Association- Wrexham Branch send their deepest condolences to family and friends at this sad time.

I am proud to say I served with Sam and I am saddened by his passing. RIP Comrade.

A lovely man with great character. Honest and loyal, a man you'd want by your side in the heat of battle. Condolences to his family at this sad time. RIP..

Rest in peace.Not forgotten.

Sam's funeral service went well with a small turnout from family, friends and comrades. The exhortation was said by Captain(Retired) Martin Hargreaves and the Rhyl and District standard was on parade. A special thanks to members of the Wrexham branch who attended.
