Dominic and Gemma,
It is with great sadness that I learned of your dad's passing. Too much for such young hearts to bear. I wish you all the peace you are able to have under the circumstances. You should take solace in the fact that you were deeply loved by your mom and your dad. You are in our hearts and in our prayers. -Celene & Chris Berry

As former Montgomery Meadows neighbors, when you left our community, we missed your family's smiles and laughter. We will forever miss the happiness which exuded from you and Valerie, less that which is in our hearts and memories.

God bless you Dominic and Gemma. Hold fast to your dreams. Your parents would have wanted it that way.

Darry, Kevin, Christiana, and Andrew Parker

Sam,

Thanks for the opportunity and inspiration over the years. You have served us well and will not be forgotten.

I frequently reflect on the times we had and will always see your face when I hear the word, passion.

God Bless and rest in peace knowing you have served many.

I want to send my sincerest sympathies to Sam and Valerie’s family,
especially their children.
Sam and I grew up in the same neighborhood. We lost touch over the years,
but I always considered him a friend.
It seems like just yesterday that he was knocking on the front door,
asking me to come out and join in a game of football.
He will be missed.
My prayers are with the family.

I WILL TRY TO MAKE THE MASS AS I AM IN COLUMBIA. IT WOULD BE HARD FOR ME TO MAKE THE FUNERAL HOME AS MY HUSBAND HAD A SEVERE STROKE RIGHT AFTER WE MOVED BACK LAST JUNE.

To the Serio Family: Sam and I had known each other for over 25 years, we always found a way to stay in touch since working together at Champion Ford in Baltimore in the early 80's. His heart was for his family and his business. We spoke about those things often and with "passion" Sam made such a positive and tremendous impact on so many people, including myself. His heart, his passion and his memory will live on forever. I was blessed to have known Sam and to have called him my Friend. Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire family at this time.

Sam, you were an inavaluable business associate as well as a good friend. You were charming, intelligent, giving, passionate; and occasionally made me nuts. I respected you for so many reasons; the latest of which was your unbridled devotion to Valerie, Dominic & Gemma. I love you Sam & I will miss you more than words could ever express. May God bless you & keep you. Until we meet again my friend ...
