Such a humble and ambitious man. His accomplishments and service have been noted and will be long remembered. I feel blessed just to have lived during a time when men of such valor and honor served with humility and a heart for God.

Rest in Peace Sam, you were a true American and Plano Hero. I will never forget growing up in Plano and while in School praying for your Safe return. The Parade they had for you when you came home was one big party!!

Gini, Beverly, Anita and Family: Sam and I served together in Congress and on the same committee for many years. He was a wonderful Friend, and I am especially grateful for his heroic service to our country. I am very sorry for your loss.
