Not sure what to say?

Hey Sam I appreciate you very much. The experiences I had in your classes were inspiring. Today I was going over some notes from your classes and I realize you've gone back to light Thank you for teaching Your words and sharp insight, will always be cherished.

Sam was my acting coach in the 1980s and had a profound effect on my creative life as he did for so many others. His wisdom, humor, talent and genius were a gift to all who knew him. Love and blessings to Sybil and the family.

Sam was the best teacher I ever had. I hated to read, he got me interested in reading . He also taught me how to deal with negative things that had happened to me, by putting them into acting roles. He was a true mentor to me. I will always cherish those memories of Sam and his great students. My condolences to his beautiful family.

Sam was my therapist for many years. I will miss him tremendously. My heart goes out to Sybil Alexei and Daniel. "He was a man, take him for all in all, I shall not look upon his like again." Thank you Sam-for everything! Richard
