Former Terrace resident Dave Sampson passes away

Dave Sampson, who with his wife Arlene rented No. 2 Hyland Circle for a time, passed away last week.

Tom Wade says the Sampsons moved to Connecticut several years ago to be near family. Dave suffered from Parkinson’s disease for many years.

Fred Fowler notes that "Dave had been a lawyer in Troy for many years and his father was Steve Sampson from Pattison, Sampson, Ginsburg and Griffin. ... Dave was a good guy, but didn’t get out much when they lived here due to his illness."

Steven Sanders added, "David and Arlene were wonderful neighbors. Arlene was very personable and so was Dave although, as Fred said, he could not get out and about because of his advanced Parkinson’s disease. Dave fought without a complaint and courageously to the very end. May God hold him in peace and joy."

Dave's official obituary is available online.
