Not sure what to say?

He was a help to a lot of people during his life time. Gone to a better place but never forgotten here.

I had the pleasure of taking care of Sam for the last year of his life. I always enjoyed seeing him and Elsie and will miss him.

Sam was my grandfather, and I couldn't of asked for a more loving one than him. I didn't get to spend as much time with him as I would of liked, but I will cherish the time I did have with him. He was always there for us and he made my grandmother really happy. He always enlightened everyone. He was a great man and I will always love him. He will never be forgotton, you can count on that.

i was shocked to hear of sams passing . sam worked me when i could not find a job and fed me lunch for 3 years. i am very sorry for your loss

When my grandmother had first met Sam he brought so much happiness into her life. Once i was able to meet him it felt like I was meeting my Grandfather for the first time. He showed so much love toward the rest of my family that we couldn't help but to love back. And loving him is what we will continue to do.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well-lived.

I TOOK CARE OF SAM BUT TO ME IT WASNT A JOB.SAM WAS LIKE A GRANDFATHER TO ME.THERE WAS NEVER A DULL MOMENT WHEN I WAS AROUND SAM HE ALWAYS MADE ME SMILE.I WILL MISS HIM DEARLY BUT I KNOW HES AT PEACE I GUESS I WILL ALWAYS BE HIS HOKIE.

Sam was a very special man. He really cared for people. I believe that some of his happiest times were when he was dancing on Saturday night at his club. He was a good step-father to both me and my brother. I guess he will now be doing his dancing for the lord in heaven.

SORRY ABOUT YOUR LOST. MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU ALL.
