Dear Gilda Marc Mike and Marty, I am so sorry to hear about Sam. He was my dad's best friend and my favorite of my dads friends. He was always so much fun when he came over or if I saw him out. He was the few people that visited my dad in the hospital and i'll never forget that .
He was a great person and will be sorely missed

Dear Gilda and Marc,Mike and Marty,
To have a lifelong friendship is unique and rare- our fathers were lucky to have that relationship. My Dad revered your Dad and so did I. When we had Marty's unveiling my sibs decided that we would keep it to immediate family and only two close friends-of which one was Sam.
Sam was always so friendly and treated me like an adult even when I was a kid. I will miss seeing him much. I am very sorry to all of you
