To the Brett and Wolynec families, our sincere condolences in the recent loss of Sam. We often recall his quiet sense of humour when we were vacationing in Texas a couple of years ago. Sam will certainly be missed by many.

My heartfelt sympathy to the family. I had the pleasure of meeting uncle Sam a handful of times when he came out to the west coast (Vancouver). He was always warm and charming. I know he will be sadly missed by all who had loved and known him. Peace be with you all during this difficult time.
