December 28th - Sam, 1915-2007

This is a shot from 2005.
It's a picture of Cathi's grandpa Sam.
We got the news that he passed away early this morning.
It wasn't unexpected, he'd been in declining health for some time.
He was a tough and crusty old guy, but he was always nice to me.
He let me take some pictures of him in his Wondrous Garage
I always liked his garage, it seemed as if he could go in there and come out with just about anything you could possibly need.

You are one-of-a-kind, Sam, and you will be missed.

Sorry for your loss. I wish my garage workshop looked as cool as this!

PS. Cathi, tell Todd he's not bringing it all home! :-)

Nice memory, great picture.
Sam's garage sounds like my local hardware shop,which stocks everything.
