Bertha, Sam & family, we extend our heartfelt condolences. Mac was always so warm and kind-hearted and will surely be missed by all his loved ones. May you rest in the comfort of the sure and certain hope of the resurrection, which is in Christ Jesus.
God bless.
Bertha and family of Sam. I am so sorry for your loss and please accept my sincere sympathy. I met Sam in 1979 when I was 17 yrs old and was the dhia milk tester. Sam and I had many long conversations about farming and life in general. I will always remember the advice and words from him as they have helped me move on through life. I have missed seeing him. I know that Sam is home now with God.
It is with great sadness that I learned of Sam's passing this morning from our mutual friend Jim Krenek. Over the years I valued Sam's friendship, his support of the Extension programs I offered and his willingness to share his knowledge and skills with others.
I send my condolences to Bertha and the family at this time of sorrow. May God be with you at this time and always.

To the family and loved ones of Sam,
May you find comfort in knowing that Sam had a deep love for God and Jesus. He has now joyfully crossed over into eternity.
Having attended the same church years ago and knowing him many years before that even.
We have admired his humbleness in his christian positions. Sam never lorded it one and wanted all others to both succeed and come to accept Jesus as Savior.
I (Barb.) had the pleasure of working with Sam since I started working @ Bayside this past summer.
We,along with many others will miss him, but knowing he is in God's presence is a comfort.
We knew Sam from Bayside. He often came to our church service. He shared a smile always. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

To the family of Sam I extend my sincere sympathy for your loss. Be consoled in the knowledge that he is now in the presence of his revered lord. Though I met him only a few times I was impressed by his sense of humor, his smile and very congenial attitude
Sorry to hear of Sam's passing. Sarah has many great memories of her family vacations in the area and visiting the farm and we both remember our eight years of living in the area and often talk of the good time we always had there. He was a kind man and I know he will be greatly missed but we can take comfort in knowing that he is with the Saviour.
Bertha, Carolyn, Raymond, Sam, and all the rest of the family. I have many fond and joyous memories of Sam and have always looked up to him as a very respected elder and christian man. His faithfulness to God showed in every aspect of his life. He has finally recieved his eternal gift, one that all christians wait for, to finally be in the presence of our Lord.
May God give you all comfort in the following days ahead.
DEAR BIRTHA, CAROLYN AND SAM
I WAS VERY SORRY TO HEAR OF SAM'S DEATH. I DIDN'T KNOW HIM VERY WELL, BUT I KNOW HE WAS A VERY GOOD MAN.
PLEASE KNOW THAT I AM THINKING ABOUT ALL OF YOU.
GOD BLESS YOU.
SINCERELY,
MARY ANN (HULKONEN)SCHULZE
