Thoughts and prayers for all of you during this sad time.
Thoughts and prayers for the entire family. Sam was a fine man and always loved his family. I enjoyed many years working with Sam and being able to call him my friend. Although it is hard that he is gone I cannot help but think of the joy that he has right now being in the presence of God. Kim, I hope that you and David can find comfort in knowing that he has gone on to be able to watch over you in a stronger and healthier way by being your guardian angel. He knows that you kept watch for so long that it is now time for him to do the same for you both.
God Bless you all.
So sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of grieving.
Please accept our deepest condolences. I had the privilege of working with Sam at VeriSign and getting to know this hardworking and compassionate gentleman. He was no nonsense about getting things accomplished and always had a positive and dedicated outlook towards any task. He was such a fine man. You will will be in our prayers. I know how proud you all must be of Sam.
I am very sorry for your loss. Sam was a great worker and always had a smile on his face at work. He was always sincere and a hard worker. May God bless you Kim and your family with comfort and grace during this difficult time. Former Verisign Employer/Co-worker.
Sam was one of the first friendly and “can do” people who welcomed me at HO Systems. He got me my first cell phone! Deepest prayers and condolences to his entire family during this sad time. Holding Sam in light and love.
I knew Sam as Staff Sergeant Helms in the Marine Corps. I was stationed at Camp Pendleton from 1988-1990 and he was a great platoon leader. He was always smiling and upbeat. He welcomed me to Comm (communication) Platoon and he was loved by the Marines we worked with. Rest in Peace brother Marine. Semper Fi
