When i got the call I didnt believe it. I didnt want to believe it. Samantha passing took a piece of me with her. Ill never forget her face her touch her heart and love for others. Ill never forget the nights of wildn out. Ill never forget our nights out. Ill never forget the peace and adventure this woman brought to me. Ill never forget the pointless fights that seemed so meaningful at the time. Ill never forget our first kiss and what led us to be. There hasn't been a day that I haven't thought about what could have been or what should have been. Ill always love you samantha and I'll miss you forever rest easy and watch over us all- the one that loved you

This is heartbreaking to see. I worked with Sam years ago and we got pretty close. Although I had not seen her recently I always hoped she was doing well. Sending my condolences to all of her family and loved ones. Much much too young.

I am so sad to hear this about Sam. She was one of my kiddos in the childcare program at Plunkett ( now HVES.) She was a spit fire and full of life. I loved running into her as she became an adult. We always share fun memories! She will forever hold a special place in my heart. Sending sympathy to all who loved her!
