Sam was one of my favorite customers at my job at commercial tire in Emmett Idaho. I moved away 4 years ago and am sad to hear of his passing. He will be missed.

Sam delivered our newspaper without fail for so many years. We could always count on him.

He'd give us a little beep of his car's horn to announce the paper at times, or we'd happily hear his truck on our road when we were out on the Lake waterskiing. Always reliable. Always reassuring to have him come by.

We admired Sam's dedication, and felt his friendship, even if it was from afar. We will miss him very much.
