My prayers and condolences are extended to Sammy Lee's family. Sammy Lee and I were classmates and, he always picked at me or had a joke to tell me throughout the 40+ years we knew each other. I will forever cherish memories of his kindness and support when my husband and his classmate and close friend, Christopher "Butch" passed away. Rest in peace, Sam.
