Dearest Anita and the entire family, Our heartfelt sympathy to you for the loss of your beloved Sam Hack. As a newfound friend, in the short time we have known Sam we realized how unique and special that he was. We met at the Leisure World Comedy and Humor Club meetings. There was never a time that Sam didn't make us laugh. He would tell a joke and sometimes several and sometimes we heard them before but he was always ready to tell another one. He will be missed by so many. What a remarkable man! Sorry.
