Samantha A. Welch

Samantha A. Welch, 52, of Albuquerque, New Mexico, passed away on April 20, 2021 at her home in Albuquerque.   Samantha‘s proudest accomplishment in life was raising two amazing sons, Jacob Welch and William Welch, both of Denver, Colorado. They were the apple of her eye and no sacrifice was too great to ensure her boys grew to be great men. And that she did.  Her favorite time spent with her kids was going camping, hot tubbing, and pretty much anything that involved them.

Her other passion in life was working as a speech pathologist with children with special needs. Her time at Happy Day School, where she worked with hundreds of young children, was one of her proudest accomplishments. Samantha had a large and giving heart and found the best in everyone.

Samantha found her soulmate, Paul Welch at a Kent State bar called Risky Business in 1988.  Who knew that the fellow in the bright yellow sweater would become her lifelong soulmate and husband beginning a nearly 30 year adventure.  I will miss you my love every day for the rest of my life.  Samantha leaves behind many family members and friends. Rest in peace my love.

A private family service will be held at Bissler and Sons Funeral Home.  Public graveside services will be held on Friday, May 14, 2021 at 2:00PM at Standing Rock Cemetery.
