Wow... I'm so very sorry to learn of Sam's passing. He was one of the good ones. Always had a kind word and a hug and a kiss for his friends. He was a lot of fun to be around, and I feel very lucky to have known him. He will truly be missed!

Sam would literally give you the shirt off his back- anything you needed, he was absolutely on top of it. He wouldn't hear of you buying him a drink if he couldn't buy one for you, too. :)

I hope to meet him on the other side some day. All my love and prayers to the Mattson family.

I am so sorry to read about Sam's death. He was my partner in the melt shop at Lukens. Whenever I asked his opinion about a job, he always said,
"Well, I'll tell you what I was thinking about that..."
He was a great guy and good to work with. Sincerely, John (Bub) Gilbert
