Obituary: Samuel Sanders Remembered in Lawrence Community
Samuel Sanders, 21, of Leawood died when his vehicle struck a stalled car and Sanders was hit by an oncoming SUV that attempted to avoid the obstruction. Sanders, a former LHS athlete, had played baseball at Pratt CC and pursued an Emporia State degree while working as a special education paraeducator at South Middle School. He hoped to become a Lawrence police officer, and friends recall his steady, friendly nature. Visitation is set for Thursday evening at Rumsey Yost Funeral Home, with a memorial service Friday at Lawrence Free Methodist Church.
