During my years as Media Specialist at Brentwood Elementary, my Media Aide, Katie Bliss, and I depended on Sam to come to our help during those early learning years with the computers and other new technology. We always knew Sam would come riding to our rescue promptly. He was always pleasant and so knowledgeable. If he sometimes shook his head at our "dumb questions", he never let us know it. My sincere sympathy to your family upon his death. He will always be a fond memory for me.
Sincerely, Betty Norwine

I worked with Sam years ago and found him easy going and pleasant to be around. After I retired, I sometimes would go back to visit at Telecommunications to have lunch with Linda and Mazzie and would see him there until he retired too. My husband, Shel and I will keep you and your family in our prayers as you go through this trial.
