Sam was a true gentleman and an honorary member of the Old Town Beagle Club. After his morning breakfast at the Diner, Sam would stop at the Club and visit with Lamar Puyda and Bob Spinda (both recently deceased). Sam would repair our tractors and fix other mechanical equipment. There was nothing Sam would not do to help out. We shall miss him a lot.
