Bill Sample
Founder and President Emeritus
December 2, 1935-June 4, 2014
“Agape, the Greek word for love has no
simplistic definition, but examples of it
are easy to find, if one knows where to
look. The meaning of agape was
exemplified in Bill Sample.”
Briana Taylor,
Past Dream Recipient.

“There is no question that there was a
strong resemblance between Bill
Sample and the Santa character we love…
- Twinkle in his eye- check!
- White beard – check.
- Love for children (especially those with
special needs) – double check!
- Selfless spirit of giving – check!”

A Top Rated Charity!
Saying Good-bye to Santa
By Kathy Davis CEO Kathy Davis Studios
“He may not have donned red suits or big black boots, and I never saw him travel by
reindeer, but my friend Bill Sample shared many other things in common with that jolly
old spirit. The former cop who had a children’s hospital on his beat was deeply touched
by the chronically ill or abused children who were frequent hospital visitors. So much so
that he borrowed money to make a sick child’s dream come true. With that, the Sunshine
Foundation was born, becoming the first wish granting organization for kids in need.
Instead of traveling to the North Pole, Bill headed south to make his magic
happen… to central Florida to be exact. It is here, in close proximity to the theme parks
that so many children wish to visit, that he built the Dream Village of his vision. On 22
acres, he had nine charming cottages constructed and specially equipped for the
kids. This village is right out of a fairy tale, except this one is real.
Instead of a sled and reindeer, Bill relied on planes, organizing air-lifts to carry countless
children to their dream destination.
Elves? Thank goodness, yes!!! There are countless volunteers and staff who embrace Bill’s vision of
making kids dreams come true. Work like this takes a village, and there never ceases to be a need for helpers. And
just like Santa, Bill did his work behind the scenes, disappearing from the limelight to let the fun unfold. It was
always about the kids.
Let’s not forget “Mrs. Claus”! Bill’s wife, Kate, has been a true partner in supporting the organization her
husband founded. As President of the Sunshine Foundation she works tirelessly for the kids, putting herself out
there as their champion, asking for support, fighting the good fight, stretching past her comfort zone in order to
further the cause she believes in so deeply. Kate radiates sunshine, sharing it warmly… and I’d venture a guess that
she’d put the real Mrs. Claus to shame!
Yes, my friend Bill Sample was a modern day Santa if there was one. He found a way to help make sick
children’s lives a little more joyful. Through the Sunshine Foundation, he gave their families a special gift by
providing something that they could not make happen on their own.”
The 2014 All Volunteer Mercer County
Chapter Dreamlift took close to 100
Kids down to the Central Florida
Theme Parks for the day thanks to a
chartered flight by Miami Air International. Special thanks to Sunshine
Foundation’s All Volunteer Mercer
County Chapter and the many donors and wonderful volunteers who
assisted the children
at the theme park!

By Briana Taylor, Past Dream Recipient
“Bill meant many different things to different people: to a select few he was a
family man, to some he was an Army Veteran, to others he was a Philadelphia
police officer, to many more he was the Sunshine Foundation founder, but to me,
he was a little bit of all these things and more.
Bill was like the grandfather I never knew. He taught me many things, a few of
which I think are applicable to all of us as we say goodbye to him today and vow
to carry on his legacy.
Whether it was because I horribly burned a steak, or accidentally ran him over
with my wheelchair, he taught me how to laugh at my mistakes. If you can laugh
at them, they turn into memories, rather than mistakes. Bill also taught me how to
smile through pain, when he could not walk through my university's campus
because of arthritis, he wouldn't let it show. He still smiled, he knew the pain was
temporary, and he should still enjoy the journey. I think he would want us all to
remember that at this very moment.
But most of all, Bill taught me a twofold lesson about stubbornness; every time he
stuck a microphone in my face at a Sunshine gathering. At first, I never wanted to
speak. It wasn't about me; it was about them, the other kids. But, Bill was stubborn, always saying, "Speak up. They'll listen. You have something to say." Thank you Bill, for teaching me that I
had something to say. And
today, I can't help but smile to myself, because I am giving the eulogy for the man who taught me that I had a
voice that needed to be heard.
As I close, I call your attention back to the word agape. Bill Sample is the definition of agape. Agape is a
selfless and sacrificial love that is so deep it is not quantifiable. A gape is God's love. Today, I know that Bill is at
home with God because he lived out God's definition of love. Bill Sample saw the sunshine in every person.”
