I remember how Sam was always a joker! He was very funny and always goofed around with us when we were kids. My brother Dennis and I were both best friends with Sam´s son Rocky. He always called us big beaner and little beaner!! Dorothy , Rocky , Matt and David, I am so sorry for your loss. Sam will be deeply missed. He was such a great guy! We will pray for you in your time of grief.
