We were so saddened when we heard of Sam's passing. We always enjoyed his company when he stopped by the house, almost always with a funny story to be told. He was a very respectful and polite person that I can never remember without a smile on his face. He will be missed by the many lives of those he touched. RIP Sam.

I can only imagine how difficult Sam's passing must be for the Martin family. Sam and I had a long history and a connection: from his childhood, CYO basketball, our trip to Colorado skiing, Keene state and seeing each other at GE. He always put a smile on my face and it always made me feel good to spend time with him. Sam will be greatly missed.
