Dear Dino, Linda and families, We were so blessed to have Uncle Sam in our family.... we have nothing but great memories with him...when I was a kid (and so was he!) I remember he could do 1-1/2' flips of the wicker park high dive better than anyone!! He took me everywhere!! even gave me some of my first driving lessons along with Uncle Peen. We will always remember him as a good son, always smiley, always time for all his lived onesand always a great brother to all..especially his brother Jim...our love and our prayers to you, Uncle Sam.....we will miss you and I promise you will be in our prayers, Sonny, Teddie, Jim, Joe and Chris Joann, Monica, Katie, Caleb and Caleb.....
