Praying for God's comfort and peace. One of my favorite memories of Mr. Sam is after I referenced a Scripture passage during a solo at church, but couldn't remember where the words came from; Mr. Sam came to me after the service with chapter and verse. It's marked in my Bible, and I always think of Mr. Sam when I see it. God bless...
