Dear Mark and Teresa, I am so very sorry to hear today about the passing of your daughter, Samantha. We always believe n pecking order when it comes to loosing family so when tragedy strikes unexpectedly it makes the heartbreak even more difficult to bear. Words will never express my sorrow for your loss but hope you realize that past coworkers do grieve with you at this most difficult of times

Sam was a really special person. She was an amazing friend and a wonderful person. I always enjoyed talking to her because we would have the best conversations. She always supported me and encouraged me to follow my passions. I could not have asked for a better co-worker or friend. She was right when she said that we were the Sunday morning dream team. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. Rest in peace, Sam. We love you.

Sam was one of a kind. Sam was not only just a best friend for me, she was my lovely French partner for 7 years, my Chemistry pal, especially my biggest supporter. I will never forget the time both of us sitting in the high school library talking about what major we wanted to pursue in life. She was always pouring out with so much passion about what she wanted to do in her future. She gave so much encouragement to me as I did for her. She had such a way with words that is been truly inspiring how much passion she had to give to this world.I will treasure everything she taught me from misspoken French words, to my incorrect chemical equations to even being a strong and confidant musician, I didn't know I could become.I've always loved Sam from her smile to her personality and I always will. May she rest in peace and thank you for the amazing memories. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family and I wish you peace. RIP

We send our deep condolences for your loss of a young woman with a bright future ahead. While we lived in Lake Zurich, my boys (David & Jose) will play at her house with her brother Niel and attend birthdays parties at Dinorex back in the day. Such fun memories when they were little. May she rest in peace.

Sam was in a class of mine at DePaul during our freshman year. This class was particularly intimate and my classmates and I shared many emotions and thoughts throughout the quarter. Sam constantly exhibited a tremendous desire to be there for, teach, learn from, help, and care for others. Heaven gained a young woman who brought a lot of light and happiness to people that she encountered. I, and many others, will never forget Sam.

August 20, 2016

Samantha, your sudden goodbye left us all broken- hearted. We can't imagine the pain your family's feeling right now and in all the people's hearts you have touched in your lifetime ..
We will always remember the warm welcome you and your family gave us, the little conversations we had and the sweet smile that radiated from your heart. May the memories you left give your family the strength they need in this most difficult time..
God bless you forever.. We will never forget you Sam...
