Samuel Louis Bean

We went skiing with his dad for the day at a local Mountain and I couldn't keep up with him despite the fact that I was in my 20's and he was in his 60's. He never said a word about it but you could see the sparkle in his eyes. He had a passion for skiing and the outdoors which was refreshing. My sincerest condolences go out to the entire Bean Family .

My thoughts are with you. Despite the years that fly by, I can picture all of you, your kitchen, the yard... It's a great skiing day today in Syracuse. One that your husband and dad would probably enjoy to the fullest. When mom died, it was such a low point, but so many wonderful memories helped. They are always with us. xo
