Our deepest sympathy to the family and friends of Sammy.

Sammy was always kind to my family. He went out of his way to find us at the close of Sunday service to talk with my husband (visual different ability).

My daughter's birthday was October 1. She received a new, smooth, pair of shoes. She named then 'Sammy' in his honor.

Rest easy Sammy.

Sincerely, The Davis'
