Sam was shot to death in a motel when a "loved one" caught him between the sheets with another woman (gasp!!!!). Now for the best part.... do you know what the title of the last song he recorded?? Answer: "I'm Afraid of Dying" Now I don't know if this is 100% fact or fiction, but for this electronic version of the National Enquirer it seems appropriate. Does anybody work out there??? Waisting my lunch hour away.... The man from mars.
