Sam was a great Hammond B-3 player and singer. He played in our bands ( The One Way Trio, and The Young Brothers Bandski ) and will be missed. God rest his soul now and forever.

So sorry for your loss. Sam and I played together in a band throughout high school. He was a great keyboard player and friend. I have so many great memories of practicing and playing with him. Our band was very popular. He will be missed. All the best...
