Sam made a point of doing a good deed daily. He was always interested in helping people and was especially fond of children. In the early 90's Sam was suffering through a very painful period of his life when God brought the spirit of grace into his life. A special visit one day with Msgr. Frank Bonano changed his life, he began studying scripture and prayed often during the day. Sam received a fullness in his spiritual life through his reception of the sacraments of confirmation, celebration of Mass at his apartment and receiving his first Holy Communion, but he especially anticipated receiving reconciliation with his Lord for the first time. The past few years Sam was homebound, he was often visited by his Pastors and eucharistic Ministers who shared Holy Communion with him.
Sam "The Good Guy" was very thankful for visitors, whether they were church friends, neighbors, the needy or the homeless and all felt blessed by his love and hospitality.
