Dear Creech Family,
I wanted to express my deepest condolences to Grace and the whole family. I had spoken to Sam on Friday before his passing and I wanted to share that our phone call was for almost 2 hours. I have never met Sam in person, which I deeply regret, however something on that Friday compelled me to share w/him my recent separation from my husband, as he was asking how my family was. We then went into a very long conversation about ourselves. That day I learned of Sam and his life, his marriages, his daughter and how he had come to trucking and to Mawson. He truly touched my heart that day and was so full of life and living life to the fullest each day. We both knew that you do never know when your last day will be and I know he lived every day like it could be his last and I myself have and will always continue to do that. He was a wonderful person to talk to and to know, again, I will always regret never meeting him in person, but from our very last conversation with one other, I feel I will always know him more than I will know a lot of people that pass thru my life. Grace he spoke very highly of you and is proud of the woman you have become, I know he will always be watching over you as a father should, I could tell you were his pride and joy! I know at times like these it’s hard to read how he has touched people, it’s hard for me to type this message, I wish I could come and pay my respects to the man I only knew by phone and his family that is in my thoughts and prayers at this time of sorrow. He may be gone but he will never be forgotten and Sam will always have a special place in my heart. xo
Sincerely,
Lisa Hunt
