Chuck's godfather Sam passed away this morning.
He was a really interesting guy who became part of the family after Chuck's grandfather and he were in World War II together. He didn't have much family of his own...no siblings, no children, no wife...just a few distant relatives living in the southern Atlantic area. So, he became part of our family. He was Chuck's godfather and Chuck's Mom's godfather. Sam was essentially a cross between an uncle and another grandfather for Chuck. He remembers fondly growing up with Sam around the house, babysitting him and his cousins, and basically being around at all times.
Needless to say, Sam's great sense of humor, hilarious stories (not that he always meant for them to be funny) and bright eyes will be sadly missed.
We love you, Sam. Rest peacefully.
