Great man, great boss, great friend! Always dressed so nice and looked so handsome! One of the most kind, caring and loving men I have ever had the privilege of meeting and knowing for (10) years. Loved spending time with him just talking about family, old times, business, cars, etc. Another one of the "great ones" is gone. I will miss you terribly! Keeping your family in my thoughts and prayers.

Our breakfasts at Robin Hood for many years, golfing, building buildings, laughing, getting advice from you, total class. I will always appreciate how you helped me, when i needed it. Love forever, Sam. God bless.

This picture is how I remember uncle Sam. He was a handsome and strong man. He and aunt Julie were always so generous to their extended family. The memories go all the way back to the beach days in Wildwood, the swim parties on bridle road and the great Thanksgiving dinners. Uncle Sam would say he had to wake up at 3 A.M. to baste the turkey. All this comes down to saying we love you and we will miss you. RIP uncle Sam.
