Samuel Ryan Shuler

It's been a year since we've laughed and talked and made plans. I walked past our old classrooms tonight. I walked past the booth we used to use for studying and dinner. I almost bought a chocolate muffin.
Miss you, friend. I always will.

It has almost been a year since your death. Having a hard time accepting that you're gone. We miss you.

I still can't believe you are gone. Your seat remained empty this semester in what would have been OUR Political Science class. No one sat to my left. But you were there. You kept me motivated. Your memory challenged me.

The semester is coming to an end. I think we finished POLI-SCI ok. I'd like to think we got an A. Maybe an A-. Hard to tell with that professor. I dunno, you picked him for us. He was ok. We'll probably get a B+, We won't be happy about it, but it beats a...

To the Shuler family: You are in my thoughts and prayers. I will always remember Sam as a dear friend, one who took the time out to hang out with me and others when he could.

Shuler family, Sam will always be in our hearts. He was an integral part of MOLAA, bringing his wit, knowledge, and friendly persona. Thank you for sharing him with us. My deepest condolences.

Shuler Family . . . my heartfelt condolences for your loss. Sam will be missed.

To the Shuler Family,
It's been a while, but the joy Sam (Sammy as I remember him) was will forever be a precious part of my childhood memories. It's amazing to be able to so clearly remember the sound of someone's voice, and his voice sounds like an old friend to me. His ability to make each person feel free around him, his infectious spirit and how much fun it was to be able to sit next to him for so many years. Being a kid was special because he was there. Thank you for sharing your...

Wow...are we ever grateful to have had you as such an integral part of our lives. You were a delight to know and love. You are with us forever. You will be certainly missed.
