Dad, we had a great childhood thanks to your adventurous spirit. You always kept up with the latest fads and had to be one of the first to try and buy the newest products. Miss your phone calls and smiling face. Love you.

Uncle Sam lived a wonderful life of love and family - he was always kind and happy and willing to talk to everyone he met! I feel he did what he wanted when he wanted and lived each day to the fullest! I will miss you Uncle Sam!
