Dear Risa and Family,
We will remember Sam's wonderful sense of humor, although he about drove us all crazy last New Year's Eve challenging the rules when we played Scattergories.
When we remember Sam we picture him in his trench coat with his Crocodile Dundee type hat running in and out of the office with blueprints in hand.
A sweet and kind man, and so devoted to you, Risa. He will be missed.
With love,
Don & Carol Schaefer
