I will always remember the times I was with Sam playing cards and listening to music. I remember how much he loved his Louie. When we went for walks around the area where he lived everyone seemed to know him and Louie. You will be missed Sam very much. I know I will see you in Paradise.

Dear Karen and Family
Very sorry to hear about Sam. We used to get together at the other Sam's house (Salvatore LaBarbara) across the street from me. When I went over late afternoon to put eye drops in the other Sam' s eyes, Sam would often be there with Sam, and the three Sam's had a lot of nice discussions. We just didn't always know which Sam was being addressed. Also, Karen was occasionally there. Nice memories.

Dear Karen and Family: I was so sorry to hear of Sam's passing. He was such a great guy. I have so many great memories of him over the years, going back thru my high school years. I remember starting my morning off waving to him while I was at the school bus stop and he drove by in his Pepsi truck. I have a lot of memories of him coming to our house with Caroline and Tony. We had a lot of fun and good memories through the years. Alzheimers is an awful, awful, dreadful disease. May he sing with the angels and be at peace now. He will be up there in heaven having fun with his family and Rocky.
With Deepest Sympathy,
Kathy Krom (Severance)

Sam was a wonderful hard working man, who was dedicated to working for Pepsi Cola as were many of us who started out under Allied Beverage in Menands. We worked hard to take care of our families, to move to the suburbs, send our children to good schools. The hours were long, but we believed in the product, enjoyed our fellow employees, and were made to feel an intricate part of the success that the company enjoyed. Sam, like all of us, believed that we contributed to our families, community, churches, and of course NYS taxes! On a more personal level our families grew to know one another, share in each others triumphs and sadness; but as we retired it seems we went our own way; my wife and I to Florida. The last time I saw Sam that one Fall day, I am not quite sure he remembered me right away, but then that glint in his eye showed a sign he did and I am grateful for that. He was a fun guy, someone who would never hurt anyone, and his persona will live with me until my time here is over. I would like to end this with: "Its been nice knowing you Sam, may you rest in peace!" Your fellow Pepsi Man

What a great person he was.
Whenever we saw him, he was always telling jokes and making everyone laugh. What a personality he had.
We will keep him in our thoughts and prayers.

My condolences and prayers are with your family Kelly. I didn't know Salvatore but as reading the loving, serving, kind, generous family first man he was, a legacy lives and is passed down to his family who will meet again, Heaven awaits.
May the Love Light and Peace of Christ fill each and everyone of you. Rest in Peace Mr. Gatto.
~ Mary Matthews - May 17, 2020
Sam was my brother in law but I always called him Uncle Sam. He was kind and generous and family meant the world to him. He would do anything for anyone. He had a good sense of humor and enjoyed a good joke. You had better not drink a Coke in front of him or there would be hell to pay. He would remind us that Pepsi supported his family and ya better respect that. Even when we would visit him at the nursing home … he would always ask how we were doing. I am confident he is with the Lord now. We will miss you Uncle Sam!
~ Linda Gosch - May 17, 2020

Mrs. Gatto, Anthony, Kelly and the whole family my heart breaks for your loss. During my teen years Mr. Gatto was like a 2nd father (put your damn sneakers on Jeff!) and i am so grateful for his love, guidance and presences in my life. The love he demonstrated for his family never went unnoticied.
I hold all our memories in my heart forever and find PEACE knowing he is in heaven with the Lord.
Love,
Jeff Malo
