I have only just learnt of Sam’s passing. He was a wonderful man and always treated me like a son. As we had a cottage in Gilford I spent every summer working on his farm. He taught me many things which I have carried with me to this day. My deepest condolences to his loving family. I will always remember Sam’s wit and kindness.
Sleep well Sam,
Pat Gibbons

I have very fond memories of Sam and Eleanor. Their devotion to family was so strong as was their sense of community. Sam's good humour.seemed to lighten any situation
My sincere sympathy.
They have left our world a better place.

We moved to Gilford many years ago and it wasn't too long after that we meet Sam and Eleanor. Sam always had a funny story, was quick to laugh and generous of spirit. We'd run into him at church, at local events and curling, he always greeted us with a smile, a joke, and a warm heart. We have a few stones in our garden that were rescued from his family barn before it was taken down. I'll think of Sam and Eleanor resting in heaven's garden whenever I see these rocks. Our condolences to all the family.

Remember many times being with my Aunt Marjie when she and Sam would talk about being the only two in their class when they started school in Gilford. They would tease each other about which one was the better student in their good natured ways, having us laughing. Thinking of your entire family with sympathy.

Sam was a wonderful person. He had the most amazing outlook on life and verbalized his gratitude so generously. I have taken that lesson and am grateful to Sam for modelling the way. When I think of Sam it's with a smile and his sense of humour in all situations was such a gift. I am so sorry for your loss.

I have very fond memories of many walks to the lake with Sam after dinner. He would tell me jokes & have me laughing the whole time. He will be dearly missed. Sending my love to his family and all that were blessed to know him.
