Your body is gone but You will never be forgotten. I always sang to you "You are my sunshine" and you always will be. Your smile could light the world. My memories will never let me down for there are many many great ones for me to call on. Until we meet again, rest in peace my baby girl. I love you. Mommy

Sam,
You are so missed. The love you have spread will never end. What a joy you have been to me.
Phil & CLair,
My heart grieves for both of you. I can't even come close to understanding your pain but I am thankful my Father in Heaven can and does. I have asked Him several time to just give Sam a hug from all of us. We love you and share in your sorrow.

Sam, You were a wonderful and special young woman and we will miss you terribly. You are safe from all harm now which is a comfort to us right now. In my heart I know God has big plans for you. There is much work to be done and who better Sam than you! Find peace and happiness now, you deserve it.
PS - it was a beautiful service wasn't it! You looked beautiful and at peace. I know you were watching and saw how much we all love you.
Phil and Tammy, I am so very sorry for the pain and grief you are suffering. If there is anything we can do, you have only to say the word. We love you.

Sam,
You were so very dear to our family. You were like the daughter I never had. You would ring my doorbell and I was always so happy to see you. Your smiles, giggles and the love that you offered everyone was always appreciated by many. Just so you know Kyle did graduate this year and he did include in his video the picture of both of you sitting in Craig's VW in the garage. I believe you two were headed to the store. I gave that picture to your family to cherish, since that was just one of the many fun times with you. I will never forget the couple of times you came over to have Craig pull your teeth because your daddy was working and your mommy did not want to pull them. I believe that Craig always said he would get out the pliers. Sammy there are so many memories I would love to write about. Thank you so much for coming to St. Louis to watch Kyle play hockey. It was a tough playoff game. I think he scored the winning goal for you. :) I wish we could of seen you just one more time before you were taken from us. I will cherish all of the memories that I have of you. You will be missed deeply by all of us.

Sammy,
You were so much fun to be around! I remember the first time I went down to your grandparents house and I was so nervous...you made it so much easier for me. Took me 4-wheelin' and made sure I didn't feel uncomfortable. I keep replaying the last time I saw you in my head. I remember getting a phone call saying "Sam's here" I had to come see ya! Of course you were all smiles. We ran up to the gas station w/Ry...talked and laughed about the old elementary school days. I do have one regret Samantha Rose...I wish I would have gotten to know you better. Nothing I can do about it now...know that I will remember you and think about you often. P.S. You have the most amazing family ever...they love you so much. It's hard for me to just sit and watch them hurt like this Sammy so please help them heal. Until we meet again, Courtney.

Sam,
I have so missed you coming for the summer the last couple years and wish we could have had one more summer together, but that is not to be so I have to comfort myself with the memories that I have of the times you were here and there are many. I would give or do anything to have you back, I comfort myself knowing that you are with God and I will see you again one day. Andrea and Dominic miss you and love you always. I know that they now have a guardian angel to look out for them just like you did when you were here. When I get to heaven I will make you some French Toast. All my love and kisses Aunt Laura

Sam,
I can't find the words to describe how you brightened my life. Having you come and visit in the guidance office your junior and senior year was a wonderful joy for me, watching you and Sheena graduate. I will miss your smile and those phone calls every few months just to keep in touch and let me know how things were going, good or bad. I will always hold your daughterly friendship close to my heart.

Sammy,
What a BIG beautiful smile you had, you could brighten any room. You are so special to all of us - especially Madison. You are everything to her and I know what she meant to you and I know you will be watching over her. I wish you were still here with us but I know you will be safe in God's hands now - I know finally for you the hurting has stopped. I love you Sammy more than you could ever imagine. I will see you again one day when its my turn, until then know you will always be in my heart. I will never stop thinking about you.
All of my love.

Samantha, I know that you knew how much you meant to me and grandpa. We would give our life to have you back with your family. You were much to young to go. We should never have had to bury you. It should be the opposite. But unfortunately that was not our decision to make. Only God knows when and where our life will end. We can say "what if" a thousand times but it wouldn't change things, so we must accept God's will. You were the light of our life, now you are our shining star in Heaven. Every night I prayed for your safety. Now I know you are safe for ever and all I have to do is say good nite and love you forever for the rest of my life. Love Grandma & Grandpa
p.s We will look forward to meeting you at the Gates of Heaven when it is our turn to go.
Love and Kisses baby girl, rest in peace
