My condolences to Maude and the entire Tudor Family. Sam and I had some good times appraising corn and soybeans up on the river. I will surely miss the big sandwiches that Maude made for our lunch and also the friendship we enjoyed over the years.
Condolences

We had some good times playing the guitar and singing country and gospel tunes.
I know your guitar is waiting for you to sing and play for your Mom and Dad.
Prayers and Condolences to his family.

My sympathy to the Tudor family. I knew Sam for nearly five years. In fact he was the first adjuster I met and we seemed to have a lot of mutual interests. While we didn’t talk that often, we always seemed to pick-up where we left off the time before. I also appreciated Sam’s insight with crop adjusting. I will miss him, and may he rest in peace.
We are so sorry to hear about your loss. May sweet memories comfort you.
Mrs.
Maude and family 🙏 Our prayers and love are with you now and for the days to come. We always enjoy each time that we took our mama to see her relatives in Virginia. Sammy was definitely a well loved person and I know that he’s leaving a hole in your 💕 Our mother was Mary Frances Hughes Ellis and she did love all of her Virginia family. Our grandparents were Gaither and Ruth Temple Hughes. LOVE ❤️
