I am so sorry for your loss. I only knew Sam for a little while but he always greeted me with a smile on Sunday mornings. I missed his sweet smile when he wasn’t able to come anymore. He will be missed.

Dear Mary Alice,
I didn’t hear about Sam’s passing until I attended the Riverton High School alumni reunion this June (2018). They read the names of classmates who had passed away in 2017 and I was saddened to hear Sam’s name among them.
I had tried to reach you though e-mail when the hurricane flooded so much of Texas to see if you and Sam were safe, but my message didn’t come back. I wasn’t sure I had the right e-mail address. I figured Sam had lost ground as he wasn’t doing well during the last reunion you both attended at the RHS Gym. Can’t recall the year.
I’m getting along as well as an 82-year-old can. My brains are still working, but my joints and body are aging a little too fast. How are you doing, now? I hope life is going well, considering your loss of Sam. He was a good friend. We only had three of the Class of 1954 this year and hope more can make it next year, our 65th anniversary. If you get a chance to read this, maybe you can email me and touch base. So sorry about your loss. Donna B.
