I knew "The Colonel" from mornings at the Boston Sports Club. He was a truly great man. Once before a trip to Asia, I mentioned to Sam my security concerns and he said, "Don't worry. You are a postive person like I am and there is a halo around postive people that protects us." I never forgot this image. Thank you, Sam. You will be remembered by many friends.
