Not sure what to say?

Sam was such a kind friendly man. Always a lot of laughter and such kindness. God rest his soul.

We always enjoyed Sam's presence at St. Rose's 9:00am Mass. We are saddened by his passing. Our condolences to his family.

Our thoughts and Prayers are with you and your family.

Love,

The Aguirre Family

Dearest Auntie Mel, Girls & Joseph, We are so very sorry for your loss and ours too. To paraphrase a very famous poet, "Pain which cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, until in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom through the awful grace of God". Please know how much we love, care, and support you. Love, your cousin Ivonne (Bonnie) Aguirre Carr

Our Grandpa

Dearest Lisa & Torrez Family,
Your father was a beautiful man. We're gonna miss his famous tamales. He reminded me so much of my beloved father. I will always remember him for joining us on our camping trips at Smud. He always came for the day to go fishing. We would be so excited to see him drive up. He will be missed by so many. May the Lord comfort you all during this very difficult time in your life.

Love, Pauline & Robert Garcia & Son's

Mel, Lisa and Family
I pray that God comforts you all in this time of loss...as only He can
do when someone we love dies.

God hides a smile in all our memories of Uncle Sam (Dad, Husband and Sam the ice-cream man), and hope in every tear that falls from all the faces that loved him.

Lisa, Auntie Mel and family, I pray that you and your family find
comfort in knowing that the one you lost is safe in the Lord's arms.

May your friends and family surround...
