I am so very sorry for your loss. Please know that God will comfort and sustain you. Psalms 34:18 says that He is near to those broken at heart and saves those crushed in spirit. Please keep His promises close to your heart. I offer my deepest sympathies to your entire family.

Blessings of family, blessings of memories, blessings of Samantha's spirit of love and life, blessings of a community that has and will continue to pour out their love to you, oh so many blessings. May God's blessings abound and give you peace. That is my prayer for you. Peace and Love, Pastor Cheri

I am so sorry for your loss. We were lucky enough to have Sami spend a weekend, along with the Tormans, with us here in Green Bay back in February. My family is all so sad - we quickly learned what an amazing person she was and absolutely treasure the fun weekend that we spent with her. We pray for your strength to get through this difficult time. Her spirit has inspired all of us - what a beautiful angel she will be!

Sami will be forever missed, forever loved, never forgotten. There is definitely pink and green in rainbows now. The shining rays from Heaven visible lately have Sam written all over them.

Jan and Selina- Peace be with all of you. Bless your entire family and all your dear friends....your support system the last few months and the years ahead. SAM was an inspiration to so, so many people - ones she blessed daily and those she never met. She truly has taught us so much about love, truth, laughter and the real meaning of life. My thoughts and prayers surround you all. Let your tears cleanse your souls. God Bless - Always, Pamela Ward & Ella Bella - Webster Groves, MO
