My family's thoughts and prayers are with all the Tremont family. I remember Samuel coming to my Uncle Carmen's house when I was a child. I loved to listen to the stories they would tell. They helped shape me into the man I am today.

Whether it was hosting a carnival for neighborhood kids at the Tremont house on Midland or giving my mom some of his fresh basil for her sauce on S. Salina St., Mr. Tremont was a class act and will be missed! - John Groat, son of Nanette Nicholas Groat & Rod Groat
