Reggie and Doris I am so sorry to hear about your loss I met Sam while working at the Merita Bread Store. We became good friends I always looked forward to him coming to pick up his bread order the first few pick ups were a bit stressful and I recall telling him he was a Pain in the ass. He laughed so hard and I was so thankful because I was only thinking it and it came out! From that day on we called each other Pain. If I saw him out somewhere he would holler at me "PAIN". I haven't seen him in years but I'll hold on to my memories! Rest in Peace my Friend.
