    Because of closeness in age(two months) and first cousins whose mothers were close(Mary and Estelle), Sam and I were good buddies as kids. As often happens, our interest and personalities evolved in different directions and we saw each other less often, though always enjoying our times together. Fortunately, we saw each other during the last few years when I visited RI. Like most of us, Sam had to confront life’s many challenges, but he always ended up showing himself to be a very kind, decent and loving person.
