I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I have fond memories of Sam bounding down the hallways of Our Lady of the Pillar School. He was a bright boy with an infectious smile. I thank Sam for taking the road less traveled by choosing to serve this country. May your love for Sam and your dear memories sustain you during this difficult time.

Nancy,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Some of my fondest memories of being at Lane's Prairie was when I would pick you and Laurie up in my arms and carry you around the yard. You would giggle all the way and then beg for another lap. I know you are hurting now, but know that Sam has been picked up in the arms of the Lord, who loves dearly. Draw near to the Lord and let him wrap his arms around you now.
Love, Your Cousin

Dear family of Sam Diehl,
You son visited our home in Charleston SC in May of 2013. My son, Jonathan Lee, is a 2014 grad. Matt Haley came as well. Such a vibrant amazing young man! We enjoyed the visit immensely. While I have never met you, my prayers are with you that you might be comforted in knowing that Sam touched people in a very special way. Peace and comfort to you and your family.

To Sam's family,
I'm sorry for your loss. I met Sam back in BOLC and we went through every phase of training together. In the relatively short time that I knew him we became good friends. It was obvious, through the stories that he told or just looking through his pictures on FB ,that he was loved and he loved his family and friends. I feel blessed to have known Sam and honored to be able to call him a friend. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with all of his family and friends.

He exemplified our school's motto, Esto Vir. My prayers are with his family.
