I was away and unaware that your family has suffered this tragic loss. Even though I am now retired, I stop occasionally in Geissler's. It was always a treat to enjoy a brief chat with Sam. Last time she filled me in on her classes, plans and goals. It is heartbreaking that she is no longer on this earth to achieve what she dreamed of. Hoping her friends and relatives will somehow find strength in their memories to carry on and turn sorrow to some positive acts. My deepest and most sincere condolences to all who loved her. Mrs. AC

Deb, My thought and prayers goes out to you and your family during this time. I did not have the chance to meet her but knowing you I am sure she was a very sweet girl and will be deeply missed. Not sure if you remember me, I worked with you at CIGNA under Denyse Mele. Ruth

Debbie, Tony, John, Karly and John -- Words can't begin to describe our sorrow at your loss. It was just yesterday, wasn't it, when I would drive Sammy and Stephen to summer school? I can't comprehend how such a wonderful soul won't be with us anymore. Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers. I know God will hold you close to help you through this time of grief. I will think of Sammy each time I look at a sunflower ... and smile knowing she's watching the flowers bloom. With love & prayers for the entire family - Deborah, Drake, Stephen & Sarah Klotzman

I am very sorry for your loss. Death to often robs us of the ones we love. The Bible discribes death as an enemy, how true that is. But there is someone who is more powerful then death. "With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” (Rev. 21:3,4) Yes Jehovah God promises to destroy death, and the pain it causes. Those who have died will be be brought back to life, and have the prospect of living forever on a paradise earth. Jehovah will remove the stings of death forever, may this bring you comfort at this difficult time.

To John,karlene and family, I do not understand the feelings that we have to put our bodies through to deal with such a tragedy. I hope you and your family will be able to deal with this with the help of friends and support groups. I wish you the best that can be expected and know that a beautiful angel it waiting up above and is looking down on her family and saying it's ok dad mom flat tire and family. Hang in there guys.

I didn't know Samantha personally. I had the pleasure of chatting with her many times at the Geisslers check out. I remembered her name because she was in the same graduating class as my son. When I heard this tragic news....I was brought to tears. I'm so sorry for your loss. Rest peacefully Samantha.

Deb & family: such heartbreaking news. From the days of us all with our babies in daycare to now, I think of you, Granby, and all of those days with a smile. I cannot imagine your heartache and sadness, as I am stunned at this news. May you find peace in time and know that Sammy (your angel) was blessed to have such a wonderful family to be a part of.

John, Karlene and family-I was shocked and deeply saddened to hear of the loss of your daughter and sister. No parent should have to bury their child. It is a pain I have experienced and one that I would not wish on others. Stay strong for each other and know that many members of your Dyno Nobel family are thinking of you and sending their support your way. God Bless You.

For the last two days I've been talking out loud to Sammy. I met her and her family working at Geisslers - we had a lot of fun and laughs. I would complement Sammys hair on being so pretty and she would tell me what she did to it that morning - she had a beautiful face with a matching smile. Part of my heart is broken for Sammy and her family - love Ellen
