My dear friends, Bill & my world will not be able to return to normal, cause you were always revolving around it! Our sweet times together, going out to eat, doing hair & talking over some snacks, talking by phone & going to church together for years. Our KC trips became more of the enjoyment of being together, more than shopping. How we miss you both already. It’s only been a week & seems like years. Love you, until we meet again in Heaven !

I'm am praying for you all. Sammy and Kenny had the sweetest love you could ever have from a friend. I'm sure their love for you all it had to be immensely deep. They truly emulated the spirit of God. She'd talk about her love for all the family. Chloe, This is Rileigh Jamison grandma. Your grandma thought you made the sun rise.She felt you were beautiful and so talented.

May God bless your family with comfort and use the memories you have as blessings. I knew these fine people as parents of my former students Kristen and Joel in Middle School at Fair Grove. I also knew them as neighbors not too far from me and also as brother and a sister in Christ a Peace Chapel A/G. Miss Sammy was my daughter's first Sunday school teacher. I know Heaven gained two angels and we will miss their impact here on earth but one day we will be rejoicing with you.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

We have attended Brighton for the last 10 years with Kenny and Sammy. They were an amazing couple that lived out their faith for all to see. We often attended the same sporting events to watch our grand kids play. Once, we even ran into them in Belize while we were cruising. They are going to leave a big hole in our hearts and church. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of the family. They will be greatly missed.

I have such fond memories of our friendship and time together at Peach Chapel. Sammy had made recording of Joel and my daughter Maggie singing together when they were about 3 years old. So Cute. My heard goes out to Joel and Kristin's and their families. We know that there is two more bright shining stars in heaven!! With much love, Cindy

Del Smith left a message on December 6, 2022:
I believe I speak for many when I say I'm still in shock and saddened at Kenny & Sammy's passing. Growing up at Peace Chapel I have fond memories of our time there. The way they lived reflected the God they served. They lived out their worship, serving, giving. After entering into full-time ministry and leaving the area I typically only saw them once a year on July 4th. But it was time I cherish and will remember as I do my own parents. Thankfully, we do not grieve as those who have no hope. Please know I will continue to pray for the family, and apologies for not being able to make the memorial service. And yet, in spite of the sorrow, the words of Paul mean the most: "For me to live is Christ, but to die is gain!" Kenny & Sammy now know all we dream about regarding eternity of heaven! They've gained more than we will ever know!

Kenny and Sammy were a great couple. They treated Cindy as their own daughter and Kenny always was doing something for her. I enjoyed Kenny in our home many times for our annual deer hunt. Faith and I loved them both and will greatly miss them. They are walking the streets of Gold and I look forward to meeting them there down the road.
