Kim and I send our deepest regrets to everyone. Sam will be missed.
To Donna,
We had so many great times with Sam and it was so good having him come back to the Soo so often, especially in the later years of his life. He almost seemed like a son to Bruce and I as time went on. He had a great life and as a family, we can’t thank you enough for the care and love you gave to him.
To Marnie and family,
Thank you for being there for your dad and Donna. Thank you so much from Bruce and I. God Bless.
To Sam and family,
Our condolences to you and your family and you are in our prayers.
Donna, Marni, Sam and families.
You have my deepest condolences. I didn’t get to see Uncle Sam too much as timing wasn’t always the best when he came to visit the Soo these last several years. I was glad the last time I saw him a couple of years ago that he extended his stay an extra day so that I could see him. I have many lovely memories and pictures from childhood with Uncle Sam. He will be missed!
My deepest condolences to all the Gallagher family and friends on your loss. Sam will be missed but never forgotten. 🙏🏻
