Sam had several health issues, but he believed in work and supporting himself. He raised cattle, owned a window washing business, and worked in restaurants. Sam enjoyed his dogs that were so loyal to him. Most memorable is Dingo. Dingo saved Sam's younger brothers from harm's way on multiple occasions. In the evenings, Sam liked to go out, watch the sun set, and talk to friends and strangers alike. He always managed to find those who needed help and help them on their way.
