Today, as we say our farewell, let us do so with a humble heart and a spirit of inspiration. In Samuel's presence, we witnessed the embodiment of humility that spoke volumes about the kind of man he was. Despite his many accomplishments and sources of pride, he carried himself with a down-to-earth nature, never seeking recognition or praise for his deeds.

As we part ways with Samuel today, let us hold dear to our hearts the memories we shared with him. Let us cherish the laughter, the love, and the lessons he imparted to us. While we mourn his physical absence, let us be inspired to honor his legacy by emulating the qualities that made him so exceptional.
In this time of grief, may we find comfort in the knowledge that Samuel has now found eternal peace. And as we sing the beloved words of "Precious Lord" as a final tribute, let them serve as a reminder that in our sorrow, there is solace to be found, and in our remembrance, there is healing.
Farewell, dear Samuel. Your light lives on within each of us, and the world is a better place for having had you in it. May you rest in eternal peace, knowing the profound impact you had on our lives.
"Precious Lord, take my hand.
Lead me on, help me stand.
I am weak, I am tired,
But You'll help me go higher.
Through the storm, through the night,
Lead me home to Your light.
Precious Lord, precious Lord, take my hand,
Lead me home."
