Jarmakovitz

Samuel James Jarmakovitz, 68, passed away peacefully on August 21st, 2021 after a valiant battle from a massive stroke in January.

Sam was born on August 3rd, 1953 to George and Jennie Jarmakovitz in Beaumont, Texas. After graduating from Kirbyville High School in 1972, he went on to join the U.S. Coast Guard in 1973 and served on the USCGC Durable in Houston, Texas. After serving, he went on to work many jobs and was a man of many trades. Sam would always share the knowledge he had learned from the many adventures he took during his journey through life. Sam enjoyed everything about the outdoors such as hiking, biking, kayaking, camping, festivals, and concerts. But most of all he loved meeting new people and spending time with his family.

Sam is survived by his siblings Michael Jarmakovitz and Teresa Bishop; his three children, Jennifer Ruth Guerrera, Nicholaus Samuel Jarmakovitz and Brian Benjamin Jarmakovitz; and his six grandchildren, Kaelyn Elizabeth, Tyler Reed, Nikolas Arjun, Layla Anjali, Maverick Reid, and soon to be here, Kodi Lee.

The family asks that you please send a donation to the charity or National Park of your choosing in honor of Sam Jarmakovitz.
