In Loving Memory of our Father
Mr. Kenneth B. Samuels Sr.
From your sons and only beloved daughter
With heavy hearts and deep love, we send our sincerest condolences to the entire Samuels family. Our thoughts and prayers are especially with all of our Jacksonville family as they come together to honor the incredible man we were so blessed to call Pops.
Due to certain circumstances beyond our control, Kenneth B. Samuels Jr., Marcus Samuels, McLance Marshall, Keavonna Samuels, and Jordan Grimes will be unable to attend our fatherâs funeral in person. But please knowâwe are there in spirit, standing beside you with love, as we celebrate the life and legacy of our beloved father.
Pops, words can never fully express what you meant to us. We are forever grateful that God allowed us to all share one last Fatherâs Day with you. That day, those moments, will live in our hearts forever. You were our greatest example. You taught us how to be menâhow to love, lead, and live with honorâand we will carry those lessons with us always.
From Marcus: Pops, Iâm so thankful God gave me, June, Webbie, and Terrio the honor of sharing that last ride with youâdriving you back home to South Carolina on June 17th. I didnât know it would be our final ride together, but looking back, I now understand why I was chosen to be with you. Iâll carry that memory for the rest of my life. That was our moment, and I will cherish it forever. You already know I got your back, Popsâalways.
From Keavonna: To Daddy,
I never expected to lose you this early. My life had a routine with you included every single day, and it’s hard adapting to you being gone. You were the best father a girl could ever dream of. My heart will forever be with you.
It breaks my heart that I will never get that moment of you walking me down the aisle, but I promise to remember everything youâve instilled in me to make me successful and happy. Iâm so thankful you met Kayson. You were such a big help with him, and I thank you for everything youâve done for me as a father. You never let me hurt for anything.
A real stand-up manâyour name will live forever.
Your grandchildren and your daughters-in-law will miss you dearly. You touched each of our lives in a special way, and your presence, laughter, and love will never be forgotten.
And Pops, donât worryâweâve got KeKe. She has her big brothers to lean on.
Our hearts and prayers are with our Grandma Fatma during this heartbreaking time. We pray God wraps her in strength, peace, and comfort as she mourns the loss of her beloved son.
You may be gone from this earth, but your spirit lives on in each of us. Until we meet again, rest easy knowing your children will always carry your name with pride and love.
With all our love, Pops
