Found this particularly moving from his obituary:
He enjoyed travelling and attended numerous sports memorabilia shows throughout the U.S. Trading things like baseball cards, boxing gloves and posters seemed to be his way of keeping in touch with people throughout his life. Sam's kind heart and generosity did not go unnoticed. He impacted others by volunteering at a home for underprivileged children in Texas, a homeless shelter in Atlanta and translating documents for Hispanic workers while on the job. Although Sam was a quiet individual, anyone who spoke with him quickly realized his unique intelligence and sense of humor.

Most of all, Sam faithfully loved his family, and expressed it in his own way. Whether it was through a small gift or by making his signature rice crispy treats, his love was always felt. We will miss him.
RIP, Sam.

This one is tough to hear. Sam and I shared a love for Army Football. He would always give me a heads up on auctions and offer me first shot at them. Always a standup guy. This one hurts. RIP Sam.
