Sammy, I pass by your desk almost everyday and smile now because of the photos I have left there of us. Also - I still continue to find lab items that once belonged to you from time to time, and ironically I find them right when I need them myself. Thank you for always being there and meeting you has forever changed my time at UCLA for the better. We will always continue to carry on your legacy ❤️
