Sam White, a New Mexico ranch native, moved
to College Station in 1983 to study history at Texas A&M
University. In 1993 he and his wife, Sondra (Class of 1987)
- moved to the Western Pacific - where Sam flew for Continental
Airlines until 2003. Their son, Quentin, was born on Guam
in 1998, and the family also spent two years living in Hawaii.
In 2003 the Whites left the islands and returned to the Brazos
Valley to raise their son.
"We chose to return to Bryan/College Station because
of the clean industry and good schools," says White.
"During the decade we were away, there were extensive
investments in the area infrastructure. Great schools, the
benefits of Texas A&M University and easy access to Austin
and Houston make the Brazos Valley desirable."
