Sam graduated from West View High School, attained a degree from The University of Pittsburgh, and served in the US Army. He started his career as a branch manager for Sears, Roebuck and Co. and evolved into a very successful entrepreneur investing in real estate and owning and operating many small businesses.

He was fun-loving, an avid sports fan and shared it all with his many, many friends until the effects of Parkinson’s disease chronically and progressively debilitated him. He suffered for the last 20 years. Sam was extremely generous to all and was a loving member of the family. He will be greatly missed.
