Not a day goes by since you gained your wings have I not thought about you. I grieve every day for your absence but yet and so grateful you're no longer in pain. Such an odd irony. Kinda like us huh? Took us so long to be friends and once we were I haven't imagined it any other way. All of us have done our best to keep going without you here jyst as you would've wanted. Be strong carry on. There's just a tremendous void without your beautiful smile and soul physically here. I know you are watching us all and keeping us wrapped in your love. Until my day comes I will keep missing you. Love you so much Sam

Dear Family,
I am sorry for your loss. As the days pass missing Sam will be greater at times. But with the many prayers and thoughts from others will help you get through the difficult days ahead.
May the God who binds up the broken-hearted comfort all who mourn and sustain your family.
Isaiah 61:1,2
