I saw during the game last night that Sam Berns, local kid, passed away at age 17.

Saw that too John, very sad, way too young. That was great to see him smiling when he was with the players and that seemed like a nice donation the Kraft's made to help fight his disease. Thoughts and prayers sent to his family. Give your kids an extra big hug tonight.

RIP

Geez, what a tough break. Both his parents are doctors. Not sure of thier specialty, ut Sam made himself available for quite a bit of research. RIP.

I was a shame.
From the smile on his face, you could see a boy who was truly happy!

Very sad. If you haven't already, watch Life According to Sam (should be on netflix). Sam's mom is a true hero for others who suffer from progeria.

They say only the good die young. I've always hoped there was a special place for them to go. you know where it's always nice out an the fish always hit an stay hooked.hope he got a break an is where it's nice. RIP

I have heard him interviewed a number of times what an amazing kid

Courageous kid right there, RIP Sam. He played his hand in life with the utmost dignity.
