Not sure what to say?

I was so surprised to hear of Sam´s passing tonight! I first met him when our daughters did Indian Princesses together, and he became my optometrist once I needed glasses.

Fair winds and following seas, brother! I haven´t talked to Sam in years, but we had some great times together as roommates in Charleston, SC and as shipmates at Charleston Naval Regional Medical Center. Moe and I passed responsibility for Sam on to Mary at their wedding. Mary, I am so sorry for your loss. Sam was a special soul. Sending prayers of peace and comfort for you and your family.
