Frank D. Samples, 76, passed away on Monday, August 8, 2022, in Clarksville, Indiana. He was born on October 27, 1945, to Jessie Eldridge Spontac and the late William Samples in Shelbyville, Kentucky. Frank was a proud Veteran of the United States Army and a loving family man. He loved to keep himself busy, and could always be found tinkering with something in the front yard. He was very creative, and could “Frank Rig” just about anything! Frank had a great sense of humor and was always joking around. In his spare time, he could be found watching his favorite drivers, Charles Elliott and Dale Sr. and Dale Jr., race NASCAR, looking for covered bridges, collecting coins, and most of all, spending time with his grandchildren and great grandchild. Frank will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him.
In addition to his father, William Samples, Frank is preceded in death by his loving wife, Sandra Ann Samples; and 2 siblings, Goldie Samples, and Mac Samples.
Left to cherish his memory, Frank leaves behind a daughter, Sheila Hampton; 3 grandchildren, Dylon Hampton, April Hampton, and Samantha Anderson; great grandson, Ryder Hampton; mother, Jessie Spontac; 4 siblings, Pat Morrison, Carol Synder, Kurt Samples (Annette), and Jack Samples (Francie); and a host of extended family and close friends.
A memorial service for Mr. Frank Samples will begin at 2 PM on Friday, August 12, 2022, at Legacy Funeral Center, 921 Main Street, Jeffersonville, Indiana. Memorial gathering will take place from 11 AM to 2 PM, at the funeral home, prior to the service.
