I want to express my condolences to Sammy's family! Sammy had been going to my gym (Gino's Gym) for a number of years. He would miss for a while, then come back and get excited about working out again. He would ask me for help and I'd gladly help him get started again. He'd also talk about his trips to Chicago and his favorite football team - Denver. He had just come back to the gym about a month ago and we had talked several weeks ago. I have many good memories of Sammy and will miss him and his presence at the gym. Sincerely, Gino Brazil

I offer my sincere condolences to Marcella and all of Sammy's family. I remember with love his Saturday morning visits to me and Bonnie, our dinners together and the few evenings at the casino. Sammy was my "buddy" and I will hold him closely in my heart forever. May God receive him generously into his loving arms. Paula Dean
