My fondest memories with Sammy were during the time we lived in Grants NM. We camped at Bluewater Lake, cut down Christmas trees and often times just drove the backroads to El malpais, El Morro, and the Pueblo, thank you Sammy, for the memories!

Sammy was a great Knight of Columbus and friend. I´ll miss his laughter and smile and his great sense of humor.
RIP my friend.
