So so sad to see this! He was always so nice to children who came to shop with their parents. Really a special person. May his family find comfort by knowing that he made the world a better place. Really a very positive, upbeat guy.

Sam was such an amazing person especially when it came to dealing with customers and co-workers. I am stunned by the news of his passing. He was always looking out for the best interests of the community. He was constantly making sure that everyone left the store happy, always going beyond his job detail. Even when it came to little things, he would insist on getting the best lollypops to give the children when they came shopping, always making sure the leftovers from the bakery went to families for shabbos. Sam was truly a special person. May his memory never be forgotten. Please take a moment to do a kind act for a stranger to emulate Sam and elevate his neshama.

Just learned of this last night and am devastated. I have known Sam for about 15 years and haven’t been able to sleep a wink all night. He was always there for me whether I asked him to be or not. Sam, you were so loved. Thank you for always being a friend.
