Visitation will be one hour preceding the funeral. Interment will be in St. Michael Cemetery under the direction of the Price Funeral Chapel of Britton, SD. Herb passed away Friday, August 4, 2017 at Avera-St. Luke’s Hospital in Aberdeen, at the age of 87, with his family at his side. Herbert Math Samson was born March 12, 1930 in Britton, SD to Frank and Katherine (Michlitsch) Samson. He grew up on the family farm near Eden and attended rural Marshall County schools before graduating from Roslyn High School. Herb continued his education at Northern State College in Aberdeen where he attained his Bachelor’s Degree, and later earned his Master’s Degree from the University of South Dakota in Vermillion. On March 18, 1950 he was united in marriage with Abagail Opitz in Eden, SD. Over the years, they lived in Veblen, on the farm and in Aberdeen. Herb dedicated over 40 years of his life to education, including 26 years in Administration. He taught in a number of different schools, but the majority of his career was spent in the Veblen School District. Education was always of the utmost importance to Herb, but he also enjoyed time spent on his farm. It was perhaps the combination of his desire for learning, grounded in the manual labor of the farm, that made him such a well-rounded individual. In his spare time, Herb enjoyed hunting, fishing, golfing and yard work. He was an avid reader. Family and church were very important to him, and he loved to spend time with the grandchildren. Perhaps most of all, Herb relished the simple pleasure of visiting with his friends in Eden over a game of pinochle. His quiet, committed and trustworthy manner were demonstrated on a daily basis, and will be remembered by all who knew him. Grateful for having shared his life are his wife of 67 years, Abagail Samson; six children: Gerry (Dan) Bessler, Cathy (Jeff) Wilkes, Candace (Bob) McNamara, Melanie (Craig) Sommers, Scott (Joanne Ness) Samson, Corey (Britt) Samson; ten grandchildren; five great-grandchildren; a sister, Goldie Hansen; and a number of nieces, nephews and their families. Preceding him in death were his parents, four brothers: Norbert, Delbert, Adolph and Wulfran Samson; and two sisters: Elvira Janisch and Priscilla Pitzl. Adapted from Price Funeral Home obituary
