Special to I he Southern Israelite
All the boys just called him
“Sam,” and he served as a frater
nity adviser tor Tau Epsilon Phi,
Mu chapter at Emory University
for over 35 years. All the fraternity
hoys, in those days, were generally
between 18-22 years of age. Sam
Bredow was more than an adviser...
Sam was a teacher, a counselor, a
consultant, a financial adviser, a
mentor, and a friend to literally
thousands of “boys” now scattered
all over the United States.
Sam began his adviser years when
his daughter. Sherry Bredow Maz-
iar was sweetheart. He concluded
his tenure upon his death, 35 years
later. He gave freely of his time. He
never asked to be honored, but the
boys honored him by calling him
and wanting to see him whenever
they came through Atlanta. He
was inv ited to their weddings, office
openings, and special family occa
sions. They came to Emory for
undergraduate school. Most of
them came to learn how to be doc
tors, dentists, accountants, attor
neys, and entrepreneurs. Sam
taught them how to treat people,
how to be community leaders, and
how to do it one way—right. He
“fathered” and “brothered” them
all through school. The boys re
sponded eagerly to his guidance.
Sam was quiet about it. and yet,
they knew he meant business.
One of “Sam’s boys,” now a pro
fessional in Atlanta recalls the night
he told Sam he had just gotten into
professional school at Emory, but
didn’t have a dime to pay tuition.
Sam took the young boy home
from a fraternity meeting and told
him he would lend him the tuition
money under three conditions: No

Sam Bredow
one would ever know he lent the
student tuition money; he would
pay it back INTEREST TREE;
and he could take as long as he
needed to pay the debt back. The
“boy" shook hands, graduated from
professional school with honors,
and paid Sam Bredow back every
penny, gladly. He said, “l am a
professional today partly because
Sam Bredow believed in me and
was willing to help me make it
financially. 1 owe a debt of grati
tude to Sam Bredow.
Another one of “Sam’s boys”
remembers that Sam Bredow was
the second person he called when
he passed his CPA exam. His folks
got the first call. “Sam was so
proud of me. He was so happy to
hear that I passed that exam. He
always gave us pride in doing what
was right, what was good and what
was kind. He had a terrific sense of
humor, too.” Sam Bredow and his
wife, Bessie, opened their home to
all the T au Epsilon Phi boys for 35
years. They knew each by name,
and both kept in close touch with
many of the graduates.
Sam Bredow was a bridge builder.
“He taught the boys to give real
service, not lip service,” one man
recalls. “He gave from his heart,
not because he had to but because
he wanted to. That was the kind of
guy he was to all of us,” he adds.
Sam Bredow had that warm
touch, that sense of humor that
disarmed and relaxed you, and he
was so positive about a young
man’s potential. He was more than
an advisor. He was the Sam that
made everybody around him feel
good.
In memory of Sam Bredow,
Emory University is setting up a
perpetual award in his memory.
The Sam Bredow Memorial Devel
opment Fund. This scholarship
award will go to a second-year
Emory student who has completed
two successive semesters at Emory
University and who is a member of
Tau Epsilon Phi Fraternity, Mu
Chapter (Emory University).
Criteria for the scholarship will
be based on what Sam Bredow
valued the most—service. The re
cipient must have excelled in ser
vice to the fraternity, scholarship,
and service to the community.
Emory University will administer
the scholarship along w ith an advi
sory board of people intimately
involved with Emory.
The Sam Bredow award will be
endowed with $50,000 through
contributions. Those who wish to
contribute in memory of Sam
Bredow can make their checks
payable to: The Sam Bredow Mem
orial Development Fund. Send
checks c/o Emory University, At
lanta, Ga., 30322.
