Ramkishin Kanu Samat

It´s been hard to write something here. I´ve come here often to express the impact that Sam has on me (his spirit still resonate around me). I don´t know why but today is one of the days I am able to do so. Even as I write this I am overwhelmed with emotion. The light, spirit, and wisdom that he carried is still making an impact today ( I am a witness and a testimony). I started working with Sam in 2019 and met him on an elevator with a fellow co-worker. Myself and the other person...

A very nice man and a very wonderful boss and person to work for. I still think of him often and my condolences again to his immediate family.

I came across this email with Sam picture today. Brought back memories of our talks outside on the bench in front of the building. Rest in Heaven my friend.

loved Sam , impressive obituary

My condolences to Sam's family, specially Anna, my dear pen pal friend "Samantha" during our teens. I had the pleasure to meet the couple on the top of the WTC. My deep simpathy.

Sam and I go back nearly 30 years, 1995, to the days of Penn, CIR, HandiSoft, AbiliTech, and Elwyn. I, like so many others, considered Sam a colleague, mentor, confidant, and friend. Sam taught me everything I know about Indian food. I am spoiled because he was quite good at preparing it and many restaurants don´t come close. I treasured our talks ranging from software design and development to care of the people we serve, to politics and Ignatian and Hindu/Buddhist spirituality. We...

It was a pleasure knowing and working with Sam. He always showed interested in me personally and always had a kind word to say. He will be dearly missed.

Sam was a smart and kind man. He helped me to succeed in my position by providing his guidance and expertise. We were a good team. Because of Sam, we were able to obtain critical resources to alleviate the workload of our overworked staff. But most of all, Sam was my friend who made me a better person and is very missed.

Sam started as someone I worked with and in short order became a true friend, confidante, and mentor. He was always there to talk about an immeasurable number of topics with wisdom and advice. He was a kind, generous, and a wonderful soul. He touched so many and will be sorely missed. My sincerest condolences to the Samat family.
