My Dad George was Sam's brother. My memories of Uncle Sam go back to when Uncle Sam and Auntie Marge lived in Montreal. I was just a teenager and Bruce was very young. Uncle Sam enjoyed hunting and fishing and because Bruce was too young at the time Uncle Sam invited me to go with him on his fishing and hunting trips. I remember many nights lying in bed unable to sleep anxiously waiting for Uncle Sam to pick me up at 6 AM so that we could head off fishing or hunting. We used to go to the Crane's Fishing Derby. We were quite successful and would often win a prize. We would also go hunting. We never shot anything but always had lots of laughs and had a great time.
Uncle Sam was very special to me and I tried to keep in touch with him and Auntie Marge over the years.
My deepest sympathy to Auntie Marge, Bruce and Sandi. It's sad to think that Uncle Sam is no longer with us but I will always remember the good times we had so many years ago.
