Dear Barbara & Family: My daughter, Jan called & told me about Sam's passing. I remember so vividly our times together way back when we were so young. Going out to eat at Julian's restaurant & laughing & having so much fun. Those were special times for me. I know all of you need all the prayers heaven can receive on your behalf. May our loving Father hold you tenderly in His care as you face the days to come. You guys made such a lovely couple so full of life & joking & playing all the time, so perfect for each other. Take care of yourself. I'm happy to have known him. Annie Mae Reyna
