Becky I was so sad to hear of your immense loss of Adlai and Sam. I had no idea and I can´t imagine how difficult this is for you and your family What beautiful souls they were! The obituary was thoughtfully and beautifully written. Though this is late I pray that and yours you will be filled with the profound peace and love at this difficult loss. Karen Garff

Sam, I still can´t believe you´re gone. The last time I saw you was at Laird Park. Joey and I had to stay out of the apartment because my landlord was spraying for ants. Joey wished he had brought a soccer ball, and when we pulled up, you and Adlai were there and of course Adlai had a soccer ball. You mentioned that starting Adlai in jiujitsu was at the top of your list for June, and I kept waiting to see you there. There was one time when I brought Joey to Liberty park after school last...

You don´t know me and im not even from your state, but this has ripped my heart out. Not that your family member has passed as he is now safe with the Lord, but that he had to suffer so in this world. May God be with your whole family. I can´t even imagine the depths of your pain.

Much love to you, Dave, Becky, Hannah, and Michael. My heart aches to know of your suffering and of Sam's. I hope you feel wrapped in the arms of the Savior and of those that know and love you and who knew and loved Sam and his sweet boy.

Love you Sam. I´ll miss you till the day I see you again. - your back packing partner, Jon Cook
