Sam passed away in Queen's Hospital, Romford early last week after a long fight against the increasing effects of Multiple Sclerosis with husband Paul and teenage sons William and Oliver at her bedside.
Paul stood in the centre circle with the players and officials during the minute's silence and a collection was also held at the ground which raised a a generous £100 which will be donated to a worthy cause chosen by Sam's family.
Thank you very much everyone for making the afternoon a special one for Paul and the boys.
