Easter
2010: Sam Britton sails away. Sam
was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer almost three years ago, and
had wrestled with that disease until his passing.
Mtost will agree that Sam was the embodiment
of the Brotherhood of the Coast. He was former Captain of the Sun
Coast table, and served as National BOC Captain from 1998 to 2002.
During the four years of his national captaincy, Sam visited many
BOC “ports” all over the world, and always represented the USA Tables
with wonderful professionalism and sincerity. He made many BOC acquaintances,
and all who had the pleasure to know Sam respected his wisdom, insight,
intelligence and friendship.Sam
was 80 at the time of his passing.
