Sam was a very articulate and kind friend; he spend way too much of his life in a wheel chair and yet demonstrated a lot of grace.
We lost him just over a year ago.
Among many other unexpected, Christ-like kindnesses, he realized at one point…

line up the idiots and choose your tool…

For my friend and coworker, because he certainly deserves it.
This song is friends with [song for themcgruff](http://alonetone.com/sudara/tracks/song-for-themcgruff)
Filho Sumido is portuguese for "Lost Son".

So glad you kept it simple...a touching tribute.
Mysterious butter! And now I feel odder than I already do.. :) Killer track!
