Samantha Nichole "Sam" Gauthier's Obituary
Samantha Nichole "Sam" Gauthier, age 33, passed away unexpectedly on April 18, 2023. She was born November 18, 1989 to Heather Ireland and Stacy Gauthier in Muskegon, MI, where she remained a lifelong resident. Samantha made many happy memories, was very proud of her children, and loved spending time with them. Samantha was a sports mom; between baseball, football, cheerleading, or whatever sport her children wanted to do, she supported them. She enjoyed taking her children to the lake, either enjoying the sunshine, watching the thunderstorms roll in, or driving to the sunflower fields full of butterflies. Samantha will be greatly missed by her many family and friends. Samantha is preceded in death by her father, Stacy A. Gauthier, and grandmothers: Dawn M. Gauthier and Kathrinna L. Ireland. Survivors include her children: Marissa, James, Harmony, Anthony, Kenny, Brayden, and Ryker; her parents: Heather Ireland, Rick Keller, and Beth Gorkisch; her siblings: Rickey and Hunter Keller and Dylan and River Gauthier; nieces and nephews. The Memorial will be held 11:00 AM Saturday, May 6, 2023 at Shiloh Tabernacle Fellowship (460 E. Tyler Rd, Muskegon, MI 49445). There will be a luncheon following the service.
