Sammie Presson Hise Sr., age 68, died Monday, June 27, 2022, at his home near Sikeston.

Born Nov. 30, 1953 to the late Otis Hise and Ruth Mae Brenton White, Sammie kept his home in the Bootheel. Sammie worked for CGB Waterfront for 45 years until his retirement in 2015. Many considered it an honor to have worked for and to have known Sam. His greatest honor from his career was when the company named a newly built boat after him in 2018. May his legacy continue on while that boat sails the Mississippi.
