Sheri, Lot and family - I am very sorry for your loss. Sammy was a beautiful girl, inside and out. I loved working with her and I will never forget her beautiful smile and sweet and sparkly personality. My deepest condolences, my thoughts and prayers are with your family.

We live down the street from Sam's dad in Woburn and were lucky enough to have known her and Sam's beautiful daughter. Sam always had a friendly smile for us and loved to chat, too. Our daughter, Ashley, fell outside one day while Sam was visiting her dad. Before we found out about it, Sam was right there taking care of our daughter like she was her own. Sam helped our daughter's swelling so much by applying an ice pack. We were so grateful to Sam for the TLC she showed our daughter. We are so sorry for her family's loss and we will keep them in our thoughts and prayers during this very emotional time in their lives. May Sam rest in peace.

Her smile and personality could light up a room, and at the same time make you feel loved. She was wonderful with kids and that was no exception when she became my daughter's Godmother! Though, I hadn't seen her in some time I know that me and my family have so many fond memories! My thoughts and prayers go out to her family at this time.
