First to Miles City, then Billings, and eventually Havre. Sam worked for the Montana Department of Transportation for 38 ½ years, beginning his career as a Survey Crew member, and eventually working his way up to Division Engineer before retirement. His hobbies included woodworking and playing pool. He enjoyed hunting and fishing, not as a hobby, but more as part of living life in Montana.
