RIP Sambo

I am glad I had the privilege of knowing you Sambo, fly with the angels.

Rest in Heaven my friend.

Love and prayers sent to the family. REstate in peace Sambo. Your forever in my heart.

Love and prayers, crystal gayle.

Sambo, you will be missed by most, and remembered by all! Ride free old friend…

When we consider the people we truly admire in our lives, we may not be able to count too many.
There are people we listen to even when they say nothing and the people who make us smile without meaning to. These people don’t even realize they are like this , because their hearts are humbled and they don’t grasp after influencing others ….Samuel Cole this was you !
One day you came into my world and from that moment you enrich the lives of many from all walks of life .
I will always treasure the times from first meeting you at Runts and through all our times from Lake Waco, Sleeper Street and the entire City of Waco.
Wish our times would’ve lasted longer here on earth but we all now have an angel in heaven called SAMBO………..,.cheers my dear friend

Sending positive and healing vibes to the family. Sambo was one of a kind and will be truly missed by all who loved him dearly.

My heart aches for the family. I truly loved this man. Guess he and Bruce are having a great talk as they use to do. My prayers . Judith Mcgee.

Well you have gone and left us all behind… Never will I forget your crazy ass!! I’ll always remember!!! Thanks for being there for me and being my friend and brother in-law. . I’m happy I got to know you for so many years. And there was a lot of years 30 plus.. I’m thankful for all you shared with me and boy did I learn… Haha thanks for letting me know you and Samuel.. all my love, rest easy FATSO

Samuel, you know me heart and how i felt about your dad! I know your life had forever changed. But he taught you to be tough, and you are! You have an awesome support team. Wendy and your girls are and your mom are gifts from God. Don’t be afraid to lean on them. I’m very proud of the man you have become and i know for a fact that your pops was so very proud of you too! He wasn’t a perfect man but he loved with all his heart! I’m just a phone call away, anytime! Just take it one day at a time❤

We spent many years since the late 70s following Sambo from place to place. Long time at Wallys and Lakeside, then of course on Dallas highway, now he can see Bobby and Donald Scott and Big mama, (jo ann) and many others we have lost over the years. They are all missed here. Good thing you left a son that seems alot like you Sambo, hard shoes to fill but he seemed to be doing it the best he could. I will be praying for peace and comfort for all of the friends and family left behind.

I’m going to miss your crazy self so much haven’t seen you in awhile but when I did we always had a good time you’re one of the greatest people I’ve ever met Will Always Love You Sambo

2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

You were always there for me and anyone else that needed help because that’s who you were and what you did! Your memory will remain with me through my lifetime. Much love and respect to you Sambo! Til we meet again

Sambo, one of my favorite people in the world, and the best f@$!”+# bartender ever known. You are greatly missed by all, more and more, by the minute. I remember like yesterday the day I told you you were the best bartender I’ve ever known or had…And your response? Fu## you MF, how’s that for the best. Never will I forget that. You were then and still are the greatest ever known, and a legend. One of the wisest full of the best knowledge men that I’ve ever met. I love you and thank you for every word you’ve shared with me. It meant so much to every time you told me you loved me. I knew every word of it was true and from the heart. I love you too brother. RIP

Sam**,

I’m sorry to hear this…. RIP.
But back in the early days when you were a tough marine and my only friend, you’re heart was gold, we had some good times went through some tough times too.
Remember Matamoros 73′ what a party were we young and dumb!

Damn life throughs us serious curve balls and we went separate ways, we lost touch but even now I still think about you and those days. I miss those days somehow! How you were a true friend. Always there to the end through thick or thin to help or to laugh.
Somehow I always thought we would meet again someday, I guess the clock never stops. You we’re bigger than life Sam, it was a privilege to call you a friend.
Watching the video you have many good friends and family who love you.
I haven’t seen you in years and my heart is broken.
RIDE ON BROTHER!!! Your Never Forgotten! RIP.
Condolences to your family and friends.
You are missed.

Respectfully,
