It is never a good idea to simply white out someone's name on a stock certificate. This would invite a lawsuit for fraud against the Company and, possibly, its officers.
I assume that a stock certificate was issued to Sam Shareholder. For some reason or other, the Sam no longer wishes to participate. The best way to handle this is simple:
Sam endorses the stock certificate to the new shareholder. The company takes the old certificate and writes cancelled on it and issues a new stock certificate to the new shareholder. If there is some dispute with Sam it would be prudent to have Sam execute a release of all claims against the Company.

How do you fill in the back of a stock certificate?
You should contact the company that you are depositing shares with to ensure proper procedure-especially if the names on the certificate do not match the account name exactly. Generally, all parties on the certificate, should sign the certificate with their names exactly as it appears on the front of the certificate and date it. To ensure it is deposited in your name, you should also complete the middle of the certificate where there is a line "I do hereby irrevocably constitute and appoint __________ as attorney to transfer." In the blank fill out the name of the brokerage firm or transfer agent that you are submitting your shares for deposit to. No other areas need to be completed. Some people also suggest completing a stock power of attorney form and mailing it separetely from the certificate. On a stock power, you would list the security and number of shares the certificate represents and sign it exactly as names appear on the actual certificate. Before mailing, you should always make a copy of the certificate. This way you have record of all the information in case of loss or theft.
