Samuel "Sam" Perry Jernigan

You are in our thoughts and prayers. Thinking of you every minute. May God comfort you in your time of sorrow.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family. I did not know Sam, but have heard many wonderful things about him while working with his daughter-in-law. I know he will be sorely missed by those whose lives he touched.

It was an honor and privilege to know brother Sam for the few short years since I joined Cathedral. He had the sweetest, most beautiful spirit about him. His love for the Lord was evident in every action and every word he spoke. What a blessing he was in my life and how wonderful to know that I will see him again. Bro. Sam's legacy is the loving family he leaves behind & the countless lives he touched.

Myself and Norma talked with Sam often, usually by phone he always was positive with a can do attitude. I considered Sam as a good friend and mentor. I am sure that the Gates to Grace were wide open when Sam danced into Glory. I am happy for him, for he is healed.

David, Lisa and Margie: We are so sorry for your loss but thrilled at heaven's gain! Sam was such a special and endearing soul that embodied Christ's love like few have. He was instrumental in bringing us to Cathedral several years ago and for that we are eternally thankful. He was truly a calming presence in a stormy time and peace such as his could only come from one place. While we all here will miss his presence we will also know where he is - that guardian sitting on high in paradise watching over his loved ones could only be Sam. Much love, condolences and prayers go your way. Missing you all.

To my older Brother,
Thank you for always being a very positive roll model and a making such a impact in my life. We love you and will cherish the memories of the wonderful times we had together.
Your younger brother,


Garland and Helen

God Has Blessed all who knew SAM as a friend though I did not know Him as close as I would like to have. Every time at Cathederal or bible study I cannot rmember when I did not see Sam!
Still He is My Brother in The Lord and as my # 1 Scripture is a Friend Loveth @ All times and a brother is born for adversity PROVERBS 17:17( help in time of need) consider Sam Such a Friend and Brother in The LORD!
& MAY THE LORD BLESS HIM AND HIS L<3VE AND MERCY KEEP YOU UNTIL WE ALL RE UNITE WITH HIM AND SAM IN HEAVEN of HEAVEN's

PS though now Chaplain USSVI Golden Triangle Base!
consider it an honor; though never can fill it as the saying goes "may take his position but never fill Sam's Shoes!

I know that those that have gone before are rejoicing with Sam in Heaven. Sam was a good friend to my parents Scottie and Wylma Collins and shared his love of the Lord with them and everyone that he met. He always had a smile and a kind word for everyone.
May the Lord comfort you during this difficult time.

Heaven is rejoicing while Earth is weeping.

Sam will be missed by all who knew him, as he blessed all he came in contact with. He was a Man of God, Honor and True Character.

Sam, You will always be in our hearts. Love, AJ and Colt

Margie, David and Lisa - you are in my thoughts and prayers as you mourn the loss of Sam. I have fond memories of you all. Joan
