My Sincere condolences to Viola and Dupree family.

My heart is sadden at the news of a man That I so admired. He took me under his wing and taught me, a country boy from Georgia how to survive in the city. I learned many life lessons from Sam and I will always be grateful to him for his kindness, patience, fatherly devotion in guiding me in my growing up years in New Jersey. Rest in peace Sam, you have a place in my heart and memories.

Sammy:

I've missed you since you retired and now your gone. I will however always remember you with a fondness in my heart, you put together a great team with Jerry, Bernard an Herbie and that says a lot about your leadership within the local.
I Love you Sammy and Dick Gabel loved you to and now you guys are up there playing cards and swearing at each other.

"Rest in Peace" your work here is done.

My condolences and prayers go out to Sam's extended family, he will be remembered by many for his contributions to the ILA and to the people that had the pleasure of meeting him. I had the pleasure of meeting Sam when I and 4 other Brother Longshoremen (Boston) Came down to Port Elizabeth for Union business. Sam came over to the Terminal and took us out for dinner and drinks and we got to know him a little better. When I read of Sams Passing I had to communicate to his Family just how...

We are so sad to hear of the passing of Sam. He was great neighbor and friend. Always quick to greet you with a smile and cheerful laugh. Our condolences are with you in youf time of grief.
God Bless.
Chris and Kathy Judge and children
