Sam's life took him to many places including South Carolina, where he graduated from Batesburg/Leesville High School and met his first wife, Glenda Whitaker.

Sam worked and lived in the Colorado mountains as a seismographer before returning to Springfield and getting his Commercial Driver's License.

Shortly after he became a truck driver, he met his second wife, Lorie Uselton (Brewer) and they had one daughter, Sarah (Tyler) Rae Hines (Uselton).

Sam eventually gave up the open road and worked for Wilson Logistics, a local trucking company, until his recent passing.
