To Ellen, eventhough the time spent together was so short, it was a happy ten months and you will always have those wonderful memories.
When I saw you two together at a wedding in October, you both were smiling and that is the way I want to remember you two. God is good and his mercy is everlasting and he will be with you always.
My sincere sympathy to you and please know your friends will always be there for you.

To Ellen & family,

Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal and weeping may endure for a night but joy surely comes in the morning. I know that the lord put you two together so that these last months were some of your happiest times. Sammy as soft spoken as I knew him is truly at peace knowing you were by his side, so you hold on to those memories and know that you will meet again and what a day of rejoicing that will be. Know that I will always be here for you whatever and whenever you need a shoulder to lean on. Take care & be blessed.

Your friend,
Ava
