God with open arms has received one awesome gentleman and continues to watch over those that are here on earth. Best wishes and comfort to all during this sad time.
Sudsy was always a friendly and gracious kid and teenager growing up in Le Roy. He was three years older than I and always treated me so well and made me feel happy to be in his presence. I am so happy to learn he had such a wonderful life
RIP. Sudsy Mike Welsh
My kindest thoughts are with you with the passing of Sam. He was one of my “favs” during the Schlegel days. He was a supportive mentor to me and a wonderful example of someone striving to promote a positive, growing business environment. A very caring man with a great sense of humor. Blessings to you, Sam, and to your family!!
Uncle Sam you will be missed <3.
