Dear family and friends of Samantha, please accept my deepest condolences. There really are no words to express the heartfelt sadness one feels when a young life is extinguished. Time and unexpected events befall us all, states Ecclesiastes 9:11. May the God who is binding up the brokenhearted and comforting those mourning be of comfort to you during this most difficult time. (Isaiah 61:1, 2)
