The life of Samantha is an amazing, motivating, moving, loving memory. I was honored to be her mother and help her in her courageous fight against Cystic Fibrosis.
I have come to this site often to read the words of love of family and friends, and have have been comforted. This GuestBook will remain open and online for all of us who want to share. Please leave a note, add a photo, or read some of the beautiful words. I miss Samantha terribly, however I am grateful. Janet
Samantha, I love you. Mom XOXOXO

The angels are always near to those who are grieving, to whisper to them that perhaps they are not stars, but rather small openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy.

I pray for Samantha and her family each day. She was a great person who demonstrated courage and strength. Over the few months I had the pleasure of getting to know her at Fairfield, I was impressed by her smile and her care. I pray for God's blessings on all those who were close to Samantha.

Dear Mike and Janet - Over the long years that we all helped care for Samantha, it was clear that she had tremendous support from home. Parents, grandparents, other relatives and friends - everyone was there for her. Everytime I went to see her one of you was at her side. It was obvious to me, and clear to everyone around, that Samantha was never alone in this fight. I know that this was an important source of strength for her and helped her get through some very rough moments. No child felt more loved. No parents could have done more. Thank you for allowing us to help care for her. I am sorry we could not do more, and mourn her passing with you. I assure you however that all of us on Samantha's team will not stop until this disease is beaten.

My Prayers are with you during this hard time. I am deeply honored that I was able to care for someone who was so strong, kind, passionate, smart, funny, and simply just amazing. Sam will forever be in my heart and on my mind. Sam touched the lives of everyone she has met and her spirit will live on through all that she has taught us.

Dear Janet , Mike and Loving family ,
Samatha , an amazing spirit , truly an angel that walk amoung us all.
I Am With You Always
As you hold me close in memory,
Even though we are apart,
My spirit will live on,
There within your heart...
I am with you always.
When you lean on trusted friends
And their caring hugs enfold you,
Within their loving arms,
I'll be there to hold you...
I am with you always.
And beyond the far horizon
When we'll finally be together
Where love will be eternal,
And life will last forever...
I am with you always.
