Our Dad was a woodworker for the most part of his life. He was a kind, gentle soul who loved his family unconditionally. Small things in life would bring a smile to his face whether it be a singing toy or a song that would get his twinkle toes dancing. His infectious smile will be remembered by many. In the words of many whom have had the pleasure of meeting him “Sam….He’s a great lad”. Words cannot express how much he will be missed. Until we meet again!

Pallbearers will be Dustin Munn, Anthony Munn, Samuel K. MacLaggan, Dana MacLaggan, Caleb MacLaggan and Hunter Estey. Honorary Pallbearers are Chad Norrad, Jarrod Theriault, Zach Theriault, Asa Pond, Randy MacLaggan, Isaac MacLaggan, Calix Carroll and Torin Carroll.
