The appears to be no record of how Samuel died, that he died when in old age is recorded.
1Sam:25:1: And Samuel died; and all the Israelites were gathered together, and lamented him, and buried him in his house at Ramah. And David arose, and went down to the wilderness of Paran.

∙ 12y agoThe anals of the world records the high priest Eli diedin 1117 BC. Prohet Samuel must have been a teenager of at least 13 years. If so he was born in 1130 BC. King David was born in 1085 BC and died in 1015 BC at the age of 70. King David collected everything required for the Temple. His last act was to set all courses of the priests, musicians and Temple guards along with prophet Samuel according to I Chronicle 9:22. They together made Heman the grandson of Prophet Samuel as the music director. If Prophet Samuel was still alive when King David was old then most likely Prophet Samuel was around 110 years old if he died in 1020 BC.
I Samuel 25:1 records that Samuel died when David was still on the run from King Saul. If one study the events and language carefully we can see that verse one was added by some one later as there is no continuity of subject and language of the last verse of chapter 24 and first verse of chapter 25. If we omit verse one then we can see the story as a continuous one.
Remember the chapter division and verse division came several centuries in to the Christian Era.

∙ 12y agoIt is understood that Samuel would have died of natural causes. All of the biblical texts concerning this have not given specific details as to the cause, which lead me to conclude that it was of natural causes. It is also understood that he may have died around the age of 52.
