Not sure what to say?

Dear Sauceda Family Members, I was fondly remembering Dr. Sauceda (fondly Sammy Sauceda to us) last night while texting with my M.D. brother (Chicago/Lake Geneva) concerning our great childhood Southern Wisconsin athletic memories which included our ritual of attending the great majority of most, if not all, of the basketball games of the semi-pro basketball team in our hometown of Fort Atkinson. The Blackhawks were the premier semi-pro team in the state at that time, and it was amazing to...

dr. Sam Salcedo was one of my favorite instructors in Marquette University I was fortunate enough when I was flying for Pan-American to visit Dr. Sam and judy in Madrid and joined them and their two boys for an entire tour of Spain. I mean how lucky can one former student B. On a hunch I looked him up today January 30 and was surprised to find out he had died. My best thoughts go out to judy who was absolutely wonderful to me and my sister Virginia who went on to become a lawyer in San...

Sending love to the family. Sam was a joyous person and he changed my life. I was a Spanish teacher for 30 years. My first job was at Marquette High School. Inspired by Sam, I thought teaching and learning were supposed to be fun. I know many were influenced by our wonderful time in the Madrid program.
Que vaya bien, Samuel

I am very sorry to learn of Dr. Sauceda's passing. I took his Spanish class at Marquette. He helped me develop language skills which took me to the Marquette in Madrid program he worked to establish, law school, and a legal career where I have made regular use of Spanish language skills. I admired his ability to teach and to practice law, in addition to so many other accomplishments at Marquette. Years have passed and I moved to Southern California. However, as I recently achieved a goal...

I am so sad to hear of the passing of a beautiful person. He was filled with joy and radiated this to his students. I was privileged to be part of the group that went to Spain in 1865-66. Candace Dietz

My sincere sympathy to the Sauceda family. I was a student at Marquette and at the Marquette in Madrid program the second year that Dr. Sauceda was Resident Director. He was a wonderful teacher and led the program in Madrid that was life-changing for me. He and Judy were gracious hosts and helpers to the students, while raising four small children. He was warm and kind, and had a great sense of humor. I didn't know what a talented athlete he had also been. Dr. Sauceda left a great...

May he rest in peace! I will remember his soul and his family in my prayers and today's rosary. From one of his Marquette in Madrid students, 1966-67, Joan Mart Sanz
