Samuel Rosales died peacefully on December 26, 2017 after a brave battle with cancer in Hospice of Northwest Ohio.  Samuel Rosales, affectionately known by so many as "Uncle Sam", could bring joy and laughter to any crowd with his jokes and witty charm. He loved to spend time with family and attended church every Sunday to worship the Lord. His heart was big and his sense of humor bigger.

Samuel's family will be receiving friends at the Castillo Funeral Home 1757 Tremainsville Rd. Sunday December 31, 2017 after 12 Noon followed a Celebration of Life Service at 3 PM.  Memorial tributes may be made to the charity of the donor's choice.
