I worked with Sam at East Thames Housing Group. The news of Sam passing has been a great shock. He was a kind gentle person. I was one of the three graduate trainees he coached. Sam always adviced me to always be the best that I can. I always referred to him as Uncle Sam. He knew all the best places to eat and took us there during lunchtime and tried to get us to like his taste in music. He was part of our East Thames Family. He will be missed a great deal. May God keep you safe Sam. Deremifa Due, Due ani amani hunu.
