Samantha Pearl Birchard

I´m so sorry to hear about Samantha passing. I remember her sweet ,charming and smiling face when she came to her pre school. My condolences to you, Donna and Bobby and family. Love, Rose Vivirito.

Hi Sammy, I was trying for days to think of something to write. Yesterday gave me all I needed. Even in heaven you provided a world of joy. You brought our community together to mourn your passing and pay respects to 2 of the most beautiful families Norwalk has ever known even if it was for only a few hours. As I looked upon a packed church I didn't see a dry eye including some of the toughest men I know broken down and the most sincere extent of emotion in all. Your dad's eulogy though valid...

Donna, Bob, Kim (Chris), Liz (Alex) and Jessie Our deepest condolences for the tragic passing of Samantha. She was a sweet girl and she will be missed. Our thoughts will be with you every step of the way. The Settis (Carm, Richard & Lisa and Chris), the Rooses Patti, Chris, Rebecca and Henry) and the Campbells (Michael and Kathryn; NHS classmates of Kim, Alex & Liz, respectively). Lifelong friends of the Buchtas

To the Birchard Family, Our hearts break for your entire family on the loss of your beautiful Samantha. Our hearts hold a special place for those who dedicate their lives to special education. We have no doubt that Sammy had a positive influence on her students and would have been a wonderful special education teacher. Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

My dear Donna, Bobby and the entire family. My heart breaks for you all with the loss of Sammy. God had other plans for her that are beyond our understanding. I will continue to pray for all of you during this most difficult time and in the future. Much love
