We worked with Sam at Valeo. He was a hard working man.He cherished Anna and his children. He always talked about his family, he was so proud. We had alot of fun at work. He was always with a smile on his face. We would get together occasionally a group of us from work. It was always great times when we would see each other. He will be missed. May He RIP
RIP loung yai
My Brother. You shared your wisdom and gentleness with us. Taught us to see only the goodness in the world. I will miss you, terribly. But know that there will always be a special place in all of our hearts for you. That place that calms us and heals us. Just as you always did since we first met. We love you.
