Body
Samuel Irving Hellman, celebrated for his unwavering integrity, boundless love, and profound kindness, passed away peacefully on March 22, just six days shy of his 84th birthday. Born March 28, 1940, in Chandler, Oklahoma, to Victor and Mildred Hellman, he deeply absorbed the small-town virtues of friendliness, charm, and unpretentiousness that he exhibited to everyone who crossed his path - no matter their station in life. Like the famous Oklahoman Will Rogers, he never met a person he didn’t like, and there was no person who instinctively failed to like him.
