Samuel Pellman

To ALL of the Pellman family, please accept my condolences, prayers and blessingd. I just stumbled across this page but I heard of his passing at the time. Sam was without a doubt the most creative and fun student I was privileged to have in any of the many class rooms I have had. It is no wonder that he was selected to create the music for The Tower of Voices. I am blessed by getting to share with him for the short time I had. Thank you.

I just found this tragic news. I shared countless hours of friendship with Sam as high school students traveling back and forth to Cincinnati bi- weekly for our respective piano lessons. He was not only talented, but witty, imaginative and funny. My time with him are some of my fondest memories.

My sincere condolences to Samuel's family. He was one of my long-time "conference friends," that circle of composers and performers whom I cherish from various professional conferences and festivals on the "circuit." I always enjoyed meeting up with him the many times our paths joined at these events. Samuel was kind and generous to all of us in the contemporary music and electro-acoustic music communities. His music was a another important voice in our multi-pronged field, and he will be...

Dear Colleen and Sam's family -
We are devastated to hear of Sam's death - far to young. We so enjoyed his music at CUMC and his often personal songs. We will miss him and God sure has a special musician now. We hope your memories along with God's love help to bring you comfort.
God Bless You -
George and Anne Gennings

To the Pellman families, you are in our thoughts and prayers.

I am still stunned by Sam's death. He was a wonderful person with a unique sense of humor. I always enjoyed his company. The world is a poorer place without Sam.
