My heart is sadden today for sure. Shannon, not sure if you remember me, but my maiden name is Pope. When I was a little girl, I IDOLIZED being able to see your room :-) Your Mom's red bathroom is something I will always remember. I got to speak with your Dad this past summer while I was home and he is a joy. Such special memories we shared about my Dad and of me when I was little and coming to your house. I am so sorry for your loss. But know I am thinking of you all and lifting your Family up in Prayer. There is no other like Sam Smith. He was one of a kind! Love him!!
