Obituary

Samuel "Bo" Summerlin passed away at ECU Health Edgecombe Hospital on July 29, 2023 in Tarboro, NC at the age of 76. Mr. Summerlin was born in Edgecombe County on October 23, 1946 to Nannie Summerlin. He attended school at Crisp Elementary and graduated from Tarboro High School.

Upon graduating high school, Sam joined the military serving one tour and achieved the rank of SP4. Sam returned home and started an extensive career working in the grocery industry, most notably produce manager of Piggly Wiggly in Tarboro. Sam was an avid fan of Tarboro high football, attending every home game as a member of the booster club. Sam quite possibly was truly Duke Blue Devils biggest fan. Sam enjoyed sports, fishing and traveling to the beach and mountains with family. He always had a warm smile and greeting by everyone he knew. As well as the helping hand that he was willing to offer to anyone in need.

Mr. Summerlin preceded in death by his Mother, Nannie Summerlin; his Sister, Nannie Lee Stallings; and his Nephew, James Michael Dunn.
