The fact is, he had a mind of his own and he was a very independent individual and very insistent on how he wanted to do his music. He was a talented guitarist, and he had songs that only he could sing well. He was one of the most talented guys I have ever seen. We all pray for him, and hope he is in heaven with God. Sahm is survived by three children, sons Shawn and Shandon and daughter Dawn, and two grandchildren.
Funeral arrangements are pending.
