I remember Samuel always being a super joyful person. I remember him being in the hallways at Victory when we were in school many years back and him always making jokes and keeping things light. We unfortunately never became the closest of friends because we never had any classes together, but I do remember him always talking with me and being a joy to be around whenever our paths crossed. One fond memory I have oh him actually doesn't come from a personal face to face interaction we had with one another. It actually comes from a post on Facebook that I posted years ago when I was in dire need of some prayer. My financial situation was in a really bad place where I needed a miracle in order for me to continue attending ORU. I remember this post specifically in terms of memories of Samuel, because Samuel was one of the first people to like my status that day to show me that he was praying for me. It really meant so much to me, something as simple as a like on a Facebook post and an encouraging comment. I had not seen Samuel personally in many years, but the fact that he took the time to show that he was extending a prayer on my behalf really spoke volumes to me and ministered to me in that place. The next day I received the miracle I was trusting God for. That still hasn't left my mind because I actually broke into tears when I saw his name specifically come up, because we had not personally seen one another in so long and yet he still took the time to read my status, like it, and say he was praying for me. I know that he was a good guy with a good heart, and that he will be missed by all who knew him well and all others who he came into contact with throughout his life. My prayers are with all of the family. Me and my family will be praying the peace of God over all of you. I know that Samuel is rejoicing with His Father God in Heaven and that God will send his peace that surpasses all understanding to be with all of you through this period.Much Love & Prayer,Christopher Holmes & Family
