I knew Sam from working with him at Texas Instruments. When we had issues with some of our semiconductor testers Sam was the man to come over from the PAC building to the EBT/SCT test floors to save the day! You could tell he enjoyed his work and making friends.
We will surely miss you - friend - keep on smiling.
Our prayers and condolences to your Family.
