She served her country faithfully in the United States Army National Guard for two years. In 2010, she and Jeff moved to Lebanon and made their home. Samantha was a devoted homemaker to her husband and family and also worked at various nursing homes. She was in the process of getting her nursing degree. She had worked as a cook at T’s Redneck Steak House for a time. She loved music and enjoyed singing with her daughter. She liked chomping on ice in her many glasses of Coke each day. She was a hard core people person who was always willing to give advice. She possessed a dark humorous sense of humor and could be very funny and make people laugh. She was talented at calligraphy, excelled at gaming, was a Naturalist and Wickin, was fond of Ozzy Osbourne, and liked puppies. She had three special dogs, Syren, Lucifer “Fur”, and Neagan, and a special cat, Enzo. She loved her family dearly and especially enjoyed having time with her grandchildren. Samantha was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, aunt, and was a caring friend. We celebrate her life and know that her family and friends will hold tight to the wonderful memories she created for them during her lifetime. A memorial to Claws and Paws has been established and donations may be made through the funeral home.
