Tudisco; brother of Terri (Michael) Legan, Pam (Jeff) Freedman, Bill (Kathy) Tudisco, Michael ( Trisha) MacDonald and Patrick (Chris) MacDonald; uncle of many nieces and nephews. It didn't matter where Sam was living he always cheered on his hometown Cubs, Blackhawks and Bears. He played hockey in high school. He graduated from Conant High School (Hoffman Estates) in 1980. As he got older, Sam's family became his pride and joy, especially his granddaughters. The daily phone calls between he and his brother Bill, to talk about the game(s) from the night before or discuss fantasy lineups, will be missed. Sam had the ability to make people laugh and not take things too seriously. He will be missed by many.
