Dear Arthur:
Just read of Sam's passing. I bumped into him about 10 years ago in a drug store check-out line and he still called me "Harvey". So sorry....he was a colorful guy!

My sincerest condolences to the entire Gilman family. My 1st job in the beverage alcohol industry was with Charles Gilman and Sons. This goes back to 1965 and I'm still involved in this fabulous industry. May Mr. Sam Gilman rest in peace
