Sam McCaughey was a great philanthropist and donated land that is now Birch Bay Ranch.
My mom was very close to this family. The picture you see hangs in the care facility my Mom is at now.
My greatest recollection of " Uncle Sam" was that he used to empty his pockets after church in the foyer of Central Tabernacle. As a fatherless child he also told me it is my job now to take care of my mom. My mom is disappointing at recent events however she is not surprised.
Go by 116 st and 107 Ave and you will see a redevelopment project and an urban renewal and opportunity for outreach. Yet the land of Birch Bay Ranch hasn't moved because the initial vision of this man remains.
Keep the faith!!!
