The years working with you on the beach won't be forgotten, the funny and awkward situations we found ourselves in trying not laugh in front of the public. The lives you saved and helped save you're a legend.

I’m so sorry to hear of Sam’s passing. I had the privilege of working with him as a beach lifeguard, and his warmth and kindness were felt by everyone around him. He had a way of making people feel welcome and cared for, and his smile always brought a sense of ease to those nearby.
My heartfelt condolences to his family and loved ones. X
