To the entire Michel Family-

I offer you my deepest condolences. I had the pleasure of meeting Sam the first day I moved into his building here in L.A. He welcomed me with a kindness that is extremely hard to come by these days. He will forever leave an imprint with me. We will miss him here at 'The Villa' but he won't be forgotten.
