Thank you so much Dale and Kathy. We have definitely felt the support and prayers through this time.
Most heartfelt condolences. Such a wonderful soul gone too soon.
This is Sam’s mom…. Thank you! Thank you for encouraging and writing to Sam. I saw some of the stuff in Sam’s possessions. The pictures of Lake Junaluska….etc. It meant enough to him to keep it. And Scott showed me the memory book you put together for him… So very special! He also mentioned that you have lost a daughter, I believe? I am so very sorry for your loss. It connects us in that way. Thanks again for your support.
Our hearts , thoughts and prayers are with you Lisa and all the family. No words can convey the sadness and heartache you must be feeling. Trish and Fred
I’ll miss you, Sam.
