We were really upset when we read about Miss Samantha. She was our 6th grade chorus assistant, and we loved her SO much. She will be missed by us and our whole class. You are in our prayers.

Dear Alesia and family, I was shocked to read Samantha's obituary. I remember when you came to tan at the mall, Samantha got to ride in the buggy and your mother or Martha kept her while you tanned. She was a beautiful little girl and so easy to please. Please know that the Lord is with you and He will substain all your needs. I pray that He will keep His loving arms around all of you.

Dear Poteat Family,
This is hard for me to do, but I cannot imagine the pain that you are going through. I remember meeting Samantha in preschool and she was my best friend and we have been that way ever since. She used to come over and play at my house and I would come over to your house. These fun and memorable times are what we will strive and live on. Samantha was the sweetest and most caring soul that I ever had the honor of knowing. She is the most beautiful angel singing in...

Sam and Alesia and Emily - You have our sympathy and prayers. Sam's mother, Martha, was part of my Sunday School Class. I know how much she loved Samantha (and Emily). Herb and I loved the whole family. Our hearts are broken for you.
