Samantha Booker aka "Spencer Cage", 26, of Perth Amboy, passed away Wednesday, August 12, 2020. A free spirit and lover of life, our beautiful Samantha was kind-hearted and giving, touching many with her great sense of humor and ability to tell the best stories. She loved music and dancing, she was the life of the party. Sam worked hard throughout her life and especially loved working at Speedway and most recently at Boscov's in Woodbridge Center Mall. She was also attending Berkeley College in Woodbridge, majoring in Medical Assisting. Sam loved sharing a morning hazelnut coffee from Dunkin Donuts and an asiago bagel from Panera Bread with her mom, as well as being night owls together, shopping at Walmart in East Brunswick at 1 AM, or dining at Applebee's. Her gentle, loving soul will be missed by all who knew her.
