I knew SAM WHEN WAY BACK IN THE FIFTIES, HE TAUGHT ME TO JUMP THE TENNIS NET AND HIM AND ED POP [SONNY] WOULD TELL ME TO TIGHTEN UP ON MY SKATES, THAT I COULD DO IT

Dear Joyce & Family,My favorite memory of Sam was @ Candi & Sams wedding . The old goat forced me to dance with him, I have no rhythm and 2 left feet, he had 2 right . That was the most fun, sore feet and all. I laugh every time I think of it. I know Sam & Sam are probably walkin the dusty trail together . He was the best. Lowes and I will miss him,Love always Lynn

My Dearest Debbie, Joyce, Brian, Chris, and Sarah....My thoughts and prayers have been with you, all the while during this time of great loss. Sam was such a great man and he really did impact my life. Thanx so much for always including me in your family holidays and showering me with your love. I keep thinking of the last time I saw him----smiling as usual!!! He and you Joyce, his wonderful wife pulled up next to me in the car on the highway---with that big beautiful pink bouquet for Debbie!! I know he is looking down on us all now, with that same smile---from a place where he is surrounded in the beauty of flowers like that and sunshine and no pain. A place so wonderous that we can only dream of--until we all see him again. My heart is with you today and every day...I will miss Sam always but shall never ever forget him!! XOXO Love, Cheri
