Well, I still haven't found that picture of Sammie & John on his motorcycle, but here's another one of when you all visited us in MN in 2008. Hard to believe Sammie's been gone 6 years:(

It´s been 6 years since you´ve been gone. And there´s never not a time I look down towards you house when driving down you block. It saddens me that you´re gone and can never come back. God had other plans and I´m blessed to have you as an angel. Please continue to look over all of us , with all my love continue to rest in piece Sammie baby

2008 Woodbury MN - such a fun time everyone had. Rest in peace, Sammie.

I have searched and searched in vain looking for the picture of you, Sammie, on the motorcycle with John. Such a cute picture, but can't find it so I found another picture that was taken that day. Rest in peace, Sammie. You are missed by so many.

Springer Family, I truly feel your pain. My heart aches for you. The only thing that got me through the loss of my son was my faith in God and knowing that one day I would see my son again. I pray you draw strength from your faith in an Almighty God and the comfort of His Holy Spirit.

My heart bleeds for Sammie's family. A life cut short before it had a chance to fully bloom causes almost unbearable pain. Hold fast to each other and the beautiful memories that Sammie left for you to cherish. I pray for our Father's comfort and strength to bring you peace.
