Hey Sam ~ Easter is here soon. You were born the day before Easter on April 18th and strangely Vince was born the day and 1 minute after Easter on March 28th almost 2 years later. I always thought of both of You as my Easter babies! . . . . . . . So Vince did what we always thought You would do!! He got a tattoo on his birthday. Have always wondered why you didn't. You always talked about it, said you were going to get a sleeve. You must of Smiled Big as You watched Vince and Cameron both get their tattoos. So~ we're planning a celebration for your birthday. Wish You were here to help us ~Actually just wish You were here! I think about you all day long. It seems where-ever I go there is something that reminds me of You; a song, a restaurant, a street, a person, a place, a black ford ranger, etc. You are always & Forever in My Heart ~I Love You SAM!

Love you samy

mom Mar 31, 2007

Love You Sam, Miss you everyday! Somedays are harder and Vince's 18th birthday was one of them. I know in My Heart that You are Always with Vince, always with all of us that love you (in spirit). I hold tightly to that belief like a life-jacket, because without it I'd be lost. Your birthday is coming up! Always the same weekday as Vince's but 3 weeks later. You would have been 20, wow! Wish You were here!! So much I want to share with you, with Vince graduating soon & Angie at Lindero. I desperately want to see you, hold you, hear your voice and your laugh, smell your cologne . . . . . . I Love You, Forever and Always, mom

Hey Sam, it sure is nice to be back home.

Check it out, Mom has a myspace! It's kind a cool, another way to keep in touch with all your friends. Keep an eye on Angelas space, would ya? I miss making you give me a kiss on the cheak. It only cost me 20 bucks, but i'd give a million to do it again. Love you.

mom Mar 1, 2007

Hey Sam. Just got back from taking Duke for a walk. And all I thought about was all the walks we took when You were little. I think we took a walk almost every night after dinner the first 5-6 yrs of your life: Remember dancing (more like jumping~lol) on ALL the manholes, peeking down the sewer grates, making wishes on dandelions, laying on our tummies looking at the bugs or trying to figure out what the ants were carrying, collecting leaves and making art with them when we got home, follow the leader, & what about when you were about 18moths-3yrs old~ you Loved motorcycles and I would put you on a couple of the ones in our neighborhood and you'd pretend to ride them (thankfully they never tipped over and we never got yelled at). Sometimes it seems like it was yesterday that you were just a little boy. And now it is only the yesterdays that I have with you . . . . . . . . . Even as a toddler we could see your spark, you were so bright, energetic, and passionate about everything you learned and experienced, and that continued through your teen years (though sprinkled with some impulsiveness). I feel so Fortunate & Lucky to have had You in my life for 18 yrs, and at the same time robbed of the Great future that I know you would have had. We experienced so much in those 18 yrs, like a roller coaster~most happy & fun, along with some dips & bumps~ And I wouldn't give up or trade one moment of our time together. You made me a better person because of who you were . . . . . And you were Sam. I Love You Sam, 4Ever & Always, mom

Brittney J Mar 1, 2007

Sam!! I miss you so much. Went up to Mammoth this weeKend - saw the sign and thought about you. Not a day goes by that I dont think about you and what kind of trouble you would be stirring up today. Your missed by EVERYONE and still cant believe that your gone... Cant wait to be with you again. <3

Hey Sam . . . Happy Valentines Day <3. Miss You Sam, so much everyday! There is this Huge void/emptiness in my heart and in my gut ~ my gut hurts and my heart aches all the time. I hate that I don't have a choice but to get used to living without You. I was thinking about Valentines days of the past. Remember how dad would always roll his eyes at me because I always gave you guyz a gift. It would be by your bed or on your bed for when you woke up! Never anything big, usually a tshirt & dvd, cd or play station game and of course "sweet factory" candy and a heart shape tin of cinnamin altoids. . . . . . . Not only do I miss seeing you, touching you, hearing you, talking to you, and of course worrying about you! I Miss shopping for you, Giving you things, Picking out things for You, saving dinner for you or bringing home dinner to you, telling you things and laughing with you!!! Happy Valentines Day baby!! Your 4Ever in my Heart, Thoughts and Memories. I Love You!!!! xoxoxoxo

Hey Sam, Not a Day goes by that I don't think about You with lots of tears while trying to put on a "brave" smile. I know it's been over a year but it seems to hurt more and more everyday that goes by. You are Missed So very much; not only your presence, but your friendship, your sense of humor, your protectiveness, even your stubbornness, your righteousness & mostly the loyalty and love you gave to us all. Thank You Sam for being You, and for challenging me and making me a better person because You were in)my life. . . . . . . . .I'll Love You SAM Forever & Always!! (Don’t cry because it’s over, Smile because it happened.(Dr. Suess))

*Faith is being willing to trust God - turning your hopes and problems over to Him and trusting in His wisdom - and knowing that somehow everything will turn out for the best. No matter how difficult or dark things become, there is always a light. I never actually knew sam but my Mom sold his family their home way back when, always remembering their fun spirits. When my mom told me Sam's story I was truly touched and wanted to wish him and all his family and friends, a happy New Year. I hope all is well.

Dec 29, 2006

Gramma Dec 26, 2006

WEll we had a good visit at your house...good to get together...we need each other so much...I think little Santino lightens the sadness as he entertains us with his little elf self... You are missed and we will never be the same..we hope we can be of help to others who suffer this loss as well...we are thankful for your life as you taught us so much about ourselves too. I think I've learned to pray differently , and more and to go to God more often with my heart. hugs to you and know that we will always tuck you near. Gramma Mary

Dec 25, 2006

Sammy-Merry Christmas-missing you even more then ever, thinking of you always and sending you a hug and a smile. Send one of yours to us too....we need it so much.

Mom Dec 25, 2006

Merry Christmas Sam, Can't believe another Christmas without You. It hurts, the emptiness of your presence is overwhelming. You being the oldest, it seems as if our lives always centered around you. And now with you gone there is just this sadness that will never go away. I hate it, I hate how our lives have changed because your not here. I hate the sadness, the emptiness, the lonliness that know one can take away, but You. I found a quote the other day & am trying hard to live by it, but it is hard . . . . "Don’t cry because it’s over, Smile because it happened." . . I Love You Sam Forever & Always, mom

... Dec 25, 2006

i didnt know you that well, but i still think about you almost everyday. you effected our little town so greatly which just goes to show how special you are. all my thoughts and prayers go out to your family this christmas and may you rest in peace...

Dad Dec 19, 2006

Hey Sam, just trying to get through the holidays, it's good to hear from all your friends and all Vince's friends that you "took under your wing". I miss you more every day. I cry every time I see your picture and read the messages everyone leaves. You are a special kid and missed by all. Mammoth is a beautiful place, but it is not the same with out you there. I find myself not wanting to snowboard, not being able to see you and your friends hitting the "rock jump" or going through the park. I know Vince and his buds will be thinking of you when they are bombing it and cruising through the trees. Love you forever.

Hey Sam~ Love & Miss You So Very Much!!! Thinking about You with tears & a smile. Still can't/ don't want to believe Your really gone. Another Christmas without You!!! It hurts so much!! I keep picturing You at 8 years old decorating the Christmas tree, the video camera on a tripod and each time you put an ornament on the tree You would turn & look straight in the camera & say "Merry Christmas Everyone". Then there were the years you didn't want to decorate the tree, but you would always let me take a picture You by it with Vince & Angela. You were my Sammy! I Loved You more than life & still do. Loving You Always & 4ever, mom

And for some reason i dont know why but before we hung up you said thanks, and i dont know but i always think about that time when you said thanks. i think you said thanks because i told you if u ever need a ride somewhere you can call me, becasue you didnt have your license and stuff. always thought it would be tite to roll with you in the passenger, well miss you sam and hope your doing well, look down on us and get us all home safely from the holiday.

Dad Nov 25, 2006

Hey Sam, you have so many good friends, they are really special people. This past year I have come to see how many lives you have touched and what a really special friend you are. I hope you are in that "better" place and that we all will be there with you when our time comes. You are loved and missed every day.

Nov 24, 2006

Sam: Well we are up at the beachhouse. I have been thinking about you all day. It really hurts. I know we will never be healed, but I hope you teach us how to mend a little. Love You Lots!!!!

<3 Nov 24, 2006

sam, i thought about you all day today and yesterday, i cant get my mind off of you at all. i cried, i didnt want to, i thought after this time it would be ok. but it doesnt feel like a year, it feels like a month. it feels like we were just hanging out. i miss you, everyone does.... i want to see you again and i want to believe you are in a better place. its hard to think that because someone so young shouldnt have been taken.. but im starting to think things happen for a reason. i love you.

Nov 22, 2006

Sammy-Just wanted you to know that I miss you so much everyday but this week has been especially hard. I think for awhile, I was coasting and not really letting myself miss you as much as I do, and now three days to the day that you left us, it is hittimg me with more and more force. I know that I am not alone in missing you and that I possibly couldn't miss you more than your family, but all the same I miss you. I know I will never be able to understand why you aren't here with us anymore, but for now, I will just send you a hug and a kiss and wishes of only fun, sweet times for you. Look down on all of us, especially your family and friends, keep them SAFE, and be good to you! With trememdous amounts of love to you always!

hey sam..it's almost thanksgiving, which means it's almost your one year. i can't believe it. every single day i think about you. you are greatly missed by everyone. there is never a day when your friends and family don't miss you. almost a year has gone by and for many, it feels like a decade. i miss you very much sam. i know your in a good place and i can't wait until i see you one day. i love you very much.

Ted Nov 18, 2006

Hi Sam--I talked with your mom last night at the Compassionate Friends meeting. She told me all about you and your great life. My son Teddy Bell is also in heaven (teddybell.com)please hang out with him, you two are so much alike. I know your spirit will be with your family in Mammoth this Thanksgiving. God Bless. Ted

Aunt Marilyn Nov 17, 2006

Dear Sam You had so much life ahead of you and so much love to guide you. I've spent this past year wanting to hear from God about His reasoning. I trust Him in everything and I trust Him now, but my tears still fall so quickly and easily when I think of you, and the precious family you left behind. How can I not put myself in your mom's place? How can I not be broken with her? I guess this is the real test of our faith. I envy you that you know first hand now how awesome our God is and the immeasurable love He has always had for you. Perhaps it is time to imagine you in the courts of heaven basking in that love and meeting up with all your loved ones who reached heaven before you. You may want to get in touch with your great grandfather (Tony), and great-great grandfather (Van) who were in heaven before you were born! You'll just make their day! You are wise beyond your years now, and all your questions have been answered. As I listen to all my praise and worship music, Sam, I know that I'll be worshiping our Lord with you. Love you forever Aunt Marilyn and Uncle Ken

Mom Nov 16, 2006

Hey Sam~ Still have a hard time believing Your really gone! Always Hoping Your going to walk in one day, one night, head for the refrigerator & then the family room to watch Weeds, Soprano's or South Park. I Miss You So Very Much Everyday. Never in my whole life did I ever believe I'd feel pain like this. I Loved our family, Our lives. We weren't perfect, we had our struggles ~ but we loved each other & I always believed that was enough. I always thought we would have "tomorrow". I feel gyped, not only were you taken away from us physically but so was our future with you, Your future. It's almost been a year ...... but it hurts like it was just yesterday. You were ripped from our arms with No chance to say good-bye, to tell you again that we love you, and remind you how much You mean to us, and how proud we were of you. You make our family whole Sam. We will Forever be broken without You. I will Love You Forever, Mom . . . . xoxoxoxxoo

Uncle Ron Nov 9, 2006

Dear Sam; I didn't know you well enough. I didn't know you well at all. My nephew and a stranger at the same time. I know that you left too soon and I'm not sure if I would ever have had the chance to know you better as time wore on. I didn't know you but it hurts to write this and know that you are gone. It hurts more than I can explain. I know that you brought much joy to your family, and as a secondary note, some concern. I can't fathom the lose of a child even if they are older. I've yet to experience the lose of a brother or sister and I can't begin to imagine how we cope. I know that in the end everyone will remember the good that you brought to their lives and be grateful for what you gave them. Right now everyone is only able to focus on your lose and how much you are missed. With much love to your family; Uncle Ron

Hey Sam! I know I don't really ever write much. It's just hard to know what to say sometimes. I think of you often tho and you have been in a few of my dreams. I think it's like a way of saying ur ok. You and I never spent much time together, so there aren't too many pics of us. But I do have wonderful memories of the times we were together. It's so hard to believe it's been almost a year. It still doesn't seem real. Like, you aren't really gone. I keep thinkin I'm gonna see you again. It's hard to grasp. I miss you so so much. I love you. Ur always on my mind and in my heart. Love you Sam!

mom Oct 29, 2006

Missing you Sam. You probably would have been in Santa Barbara this weekend for the Halloween festivities, or in S.D. I think about you all day long everyday, remembering everything & anything - usually with tears in my eyes, though often with a smile or chuckle. You fit in a lot in your short life. You lived life with a lot of passion & not many regrets, for that I am grateful(though it was because of that I worried so much about you). I will forever be proud of you & the friend you were to all..... I Love You baby, and Always will.

mom Oct 25, 2006

Hey Sam, Missing You So Very Much. The last 11 months have been so hard without You here with us. Life is so different. You made our family whole. Without you it's hard to know who each of us are any more. You made us feel good about ourselves, You challenged us, You watched over us, You loved us. Whatever we gave to you, you always gave back more. We Miss You, We Miss Your Friends, We Miss the future that was stolen from you, from us. I would give anything, to have you back again. . . . . Have you walk through the front door & laugh that laugh of yours and go straight to the refrigerator before going into the family room & sitting on "your spot" on the couch to watch "Weeds" or "The Sopranos". I Love You Sam!! 4Ever & Always, mom . . . . xxooxox

Oct 25, 2006

Sammy how is it possible that 11 short months ago you were still here with all of us, making us smile and hold our breath (who knew what you were going to do at any time) at the same time? It feels like forever since I saw your sassy smile and just talked with you, I miss you so much, more than I think you would ever know or believe. I hope you can see us, all of us, who love you and send us all your love. Put your arms around Dad, mom, Vince and Angie and hold them tight! For all the rest of us, a tilt of your head and a smile will do just fine :)

Oct 24, 2006

And whenever one of us got in trouble we were always on eachothers side no matter what and that ment more to me then anything....but now you are my angel and thank you for everything you ever did for me love you always and forever

Dad Oct 22, 2006

Hey Sam, I think I only cried once in front of you in the short 18yrs you were with us, remember that day?. I cry almost every day for you, mom, Vince, Angela, Mike, Barb, Ash, Brit, and your friends. I miss you. I miss your friends. I know you had such an impact on Vinces friends and I cry for them also. I don't think the heartache will ever be gone. I love you for always.

Mom Oct 16, 2006

Hey Sam, I love & miss you soo much. I miss everything about you. There is a hole, a big empty space in our hearts & house without You. I miss worrying about you, I miss your late nights, I miss your trips to S.D. & to S.B., I miss your stories & hearing about your friends and what they are all doing, or what you all were going to do. Can you believe I even miss your Grouchy "butt" mornings. Mostly I miss your grin, and your laugh and You telling me I was "Crazy" all the time. I know you hated it when you didn't have your truck, but I loved driving you around (even though Dad didn't want me to .. getting to spend that extra little bit of time with you, catching up on your busy & full life I loved watching you with Angela. Almost every picture has Angie on your back, her holding your hand or her arms around you. And Your especially tight friendship/ brother bond you had with Vince, always watching out for him & his friends. We miss you so much. You were one of a kind, and were our Son, Brother & Friend. Thank you for all you gave to us in the short 18 yrs we had with you ............You are 4Ever Loved & will Always be Missed.

- Words Left Unsaid - Sep 29, 2006

I din't get to say "goodbye", And all the words I wanted you to hear. I should have said them when I had my chance, But I thought that you would always be near. -- I ran out of time to let you know, Just how much you meant to me. I should have told you, but I thought you knew, But now I will never know, if you really did see. -- When I talk to you in my prayers at night, I hope you can hear all I have to say. I would have told you, if only I could, Have had you back for one more day. -- Perhaps there were words you wanted to say also, That were left unsaid by you. But I do know that you loved me, As you knew that I loved you too. -- We should always say what we feel in our heart, As tomorrow may never come. Speak those words today as you feel them, And never lose your chance to tell someone. -- (Author- Pamela Hall)

In the LA Times, Parade Magazine - the question was asked; If you had One Day to spend with someone who’s gone .... Who would it be? .... What would you do? ..... This is what I submitted: If I had One Day ......... I would spend it with my son, Sam. The last time I saw Sam was the Weds. morning before he unexpectedly passed away in his sleep, Thanksgiving morning 11-24-05. He was a healthy, strong, spirited 18 year old leaving for Mammoth w/ friends for the long Thanksgiving weekend. Our first Holiday without him, but he was now an adult. I remember our last morning clearly as I followed Sam around while he packed, helping him to find things all the while talking, sharing & laughing. I would want My one day with Sam to be a normal day for us. Me waking up his "grumpy" butt, going out to lunch like we often did, just us or with one or more of his friends. Then spend the day hanging out talking, Laughing, sharing & remembering everything. Then maybe watching a movie with our whole family, me, his dad, brother & sister, before he would go out for the night to "hang" with his friends. I would Hug & Kiss him so much, He would tell me, as he often did that I was "crazy". I would memorize his beautiful face, his sincere smile, contagious laugh, his voice & scent. I would tell Sam over & over, like I did each day, that I Loved Him. I would give Anything to be able to tell Sam how Proud I was to be His Mom, Then, Now & 4Ever. . . The day would end with Sam strolling in late,(as usual)and peeking into my room, knowing I was awake and saying I love you mom before he would crawl into bed & me answering back "I Love You More".

Papa Jul 21, 2006

Hey sam...it's been forever since I've wrote..I've been reading a book about a mother who lost her son about the same age as you but in 1997 he was 19 and left a mark on everyone he met just like you and had many friends and a shining personality and soul that no one could miss..and handsome just like you...The book is by Danielle Steel and it's called: The story of Nick Traina His Bright Light...any way he wrote a wounderful poem to his mother a year before he died and I think some of it is what you might say to your mother if u had known your destiny... Mom... "I have known a million people But never one like you Many of my friends are special But I still don't have a clue How you got to be so wounderful The world's most perfect mom You've always loved and helped me Even when I was wrong I'm sorry that I've hurt you I'm sorry I've made you cry I'll do my best to make you proud I promise I will try Everyone sees hardship And everyone feels pain And if anyone knows it's you and me That sun will shine through rain You've given me so much I love you I'm trying and it's tough Without you I'd be nowhere You believed in me no matter what My arms are always open I promise you they'll never shut I have more respect for you Than any woman alive And my shoulder is always here If you ever need to cry Everything will turn out fine Because I will turn out fine Beacause I will always love you Until the day I die..."By: Nick Traina August 1996...May you always be happy in heaven as you were not here and may all your sadness, anger, pain and depression be lifted from your spirit as you run free with your true love Sarah and float with angels like Sam and hopefully Sam can put a smile on your face like he did for us...R.I.P

Some people come into our lives, and quietly go .... Others stay awhile, and leave footprints on our hearts .... And we are never the same .... Thanks Sam for the footprints! So many of us will never be the same because we were lucky enough to have you, our friend in our lives. And even though you wern't with us here on earth long enough. We will have our memories of you and all those good times in our hearts forever. RIP SAM

Father's day without YOU, Everyday Without YOU Hurts! Father's day, Mother's day, Birthdays, Any & Every holiday are just bigger reminders that you aren't here. YOU Are So Missed every single day! ....Dad got lots of phone calls today and visits from your friends. YOU were and are so loved SAM. YOU gave as YOU got and your friends are proof of that. They are still so loyal and true to YOU. It warms our hearts to see their dedication and love. Your friends are now our friends too and we love them all very much. Love YOU 4Ever and Always SAM!!

hey sam just came upon this old song and it reminded me of you! " life aint always what it seems to be, Words cant express what you mean to me, Even though youre gone we still a team, Thru your family i'll fullfill your dreams, In the future cant wait to see if you'll, Open up the gates for me, Reminisce sometime the night they took my friend,Try to black it out, but it plays again, When its real feelings hard to conceal, Cant imagine all the pain i feel, Give anything to hear half your breath, I know you still livin your life after death, Every step i take, Every move i make, Every single day, Every time i pray, I'll be missing you, Thinking of the day, When you went away, What a life take, What a bond to break, I'll be missing you, It's kinda hard wit you not around, Know you in Heaven smilin down, Watching us while we pray for you, Everday we pray for you, Till the day we meet again, In my heart is where I keep you friend, Memories give me the strength i need to proceed, Strength I need to believe!"(p diddy) miss you SAM SRM 4 LIFE

Britney B. Jun 18, 2006

I love you & miss you terribly, too many things, words, memories come to mind when thought of you. I want you back here more than anything. Sometimes I just don't know what to do with myself, because you are not around anymore. Went to the oak view graduation on friday, with your family my family jessie & a bunch of your friends came too, we all miss you a lot. I'll love you forever, & you'll always stay in the warmest spot of my heart! Love You

Dad Jun 18, 2006

Hey Sam, went to Oak View Graduation on Fri. and gave out to plaques in your name, to Sean and Eric, your buds. It's fathers day and I still have some I.O.U's from you from previous fathers days and birthdays i never collected on. I wish I would have used them right away, even if it was a hug or a kiss. I remember when you would ask for money, and I would say "give me a kiss and i'll give it to ya" of course it was always in front of your friends and you would still do it, and with that smile of yours. I miss that.

Hey Sam- I love YOU and Miss YOU so very much Everyday..... We gave 2 scholarships In Memory of YOU to 2 graduates of Oak View HS last night. What made it even more special is that they were good friends of yours!! Sean Garrison & Erik Kamrath!! & then we were given a gift by Mrs. Allen & Oak View, it's a framed page from their 2005-06 yearbook dedicating their yearbook to YOU!! It has pictures of you and the words Mrs. Allen spoke at your service "There was Something about Sam". Her words are beautiful & they're you! The last sentence says it all "What Sam gave to us all is so much more than he took"

i havent really written anything in a while, whenever i do try to write something it just seems so stupid because words just cant describe you, you were so beyond that. all around agoura ive been seeing stickers in your honor tagged everywhere, i smile whenever i see them. (mad props to whoever put those up). it just goes to show how loved and remembered you will and always will be. summer is finally here, and im dissapointed that i will only get to spend it with you in spirit. i love you and i miss you so much every single day.

Dad Jun 14, 2006

Hey Sam, these next few years are going to be the hardest. With all your friends going off on thier seperate ways, figuring out what to do, how to make it work, going to school, and just moving on.

This can't be happening to us, to our family. We need Sam!!" Sam, YOU made us whole, YOU began us, Our family. YOU were our first of "everythings". YOU were the beginning!! and YOU were suppose to be with me til my end, not yours!!!!

you know May 23, 2006

i cant believe its almost been 6 months, it still seems so unreal. sometimes, in my mind, i pretend like you never left us. like it was a nightmare or something. i just wish i could kick it with you just one more time. i dont think i ever got the chance to tell you how much i looked up to you, which i regret extremely. i try not to cry or be sad when i think of you, i know you wouldn't want your bro's to hurt when they think of you, but instead laugh when they think of you. i love you so much sam, and i treasure the last time we hung out more than anything material in this world.

May 23, 2006

Love you.. cant wait till we meet again

Jacque May 23, 2006

Hey Sam! I've been thinking a lot abt you lately. I heard a country song on the radio recently and it made me think of you. It's by Diamond Rio and it's called "One More Day." It describes exactly how not only I feel but how just about every other person who knew you would feel. It's the perfect song. I miss you so much, Sam. It's so hard to think, to believe that I wont be seeing ya anymore. I keep wishing that one day I'll wake up and this will all be a bad dream. That you'll be ok and that I'll be hearing more stories of the mayhem you used to cause. I can't believe that it's been almost 6 months since you've been gone. Six very hard,long,sad months. I miss you every second of every day, every day of the week, every week of every month, every month of the year and every year that you'll be gone. I love you. Not a day passes that you aren't with me in some way. Love You Sam.

Sam, We Love and Miss You May 21, 2006

It seems so long since you've been gone, Sometimes it's so hard to face the dawn. The hardest thing we've ever had to do, Is to face each new day without seeing you. Perhaps one day we'll understand, Why God decided to take your hand. And lead you into Heaven above, Surrounded by his tender love. We hope to face the Lord one day, And ask him why you couldn't stay. On earth with those who loved you so, Those who wanted to see you grow. We mourn for the things that will not be. For the things with you, we'll never see. The fun and games we'll never share, For special times when you won't be there. Until that day, we must live our lives, Ensuring each memory of you survives. And feel your presence, ever near, Each time we shed each painful tear.

May 21, 2006

Hey Sam, Thinking about you always. Talking with friends and we still are trying to figure out the reason why this all happened.

Apr 28, 2006

The saying "you never really know what you got, till its gone" Never ment anything to me till you left us, I always took advantage of you being ther for me, because i thought you would always be ther till we wher way old.... Everyday i think about when im older and how you wont be ther, or even when i graduate You wont be ther to make fun of me when im on that stupid stage....Just wish I could wake up and everything will be fine, and you will be home, or you will call me to see if I can drive you somewhere or let you barrow my car (because you didnt have ur license) and i would always let you.... just wish you wher still here....... Love you Miss you ALWAYS........S.R.M 4LIFE

mom Apr 27, 2006

We are connected, my child and I, by an invisible cord not seen by the eye. It's not like the cord that connects us at birth, this cord can't be seen by any on earth. This cord does its work right from the start, it binds us together, attached by the heart. I know that it's there, though no one can see this invisible cord, from my child to me. The strength of this cord, it's hard to describe, it can't be destroyed, it can't be denied. It's stronger than any cord man could create; it withstands the test, can hold any weight. And though you are gone and you're not here with me, the cord is still there though no one can see. It pulls at my heart, I am bruised, I am sore, but this cord is my lifeline as never before. I'm thankful that God connects us this way, a mother and child....Death can't take it away. (by Terri Apostolakos) I LOVE YOU SAM, THEN, NOW, FOREVER, AND ALWAYS!

Hey Sam - Happy Birthday honey . Can't begin to tell you how much we love & miss you. You have left a void that just can't be filled. Papa & I were watching the video of you eating spagetti for the first time and playing in the water in the front yard, it brought back so many fun memories; there is not a day that goes by that we don't remember something about you that brings a smile to our face. You will live on in our hearts always and forever. We love you!

Happy Easter Sam! i hope you have a good day today, love you Zach

Dad Apr 16, 2006

Hey Sam, Happy Easter. I'm listening to a Christian program on t.v. right now, you believe that?. I'm trying to believe all the preacher is preaching. I guess if you celebrate Easter you must believe that Jesus rose from the dead and you are a Christian. What gets me is that he said Jesus is the only God and all other "Gods" are not real. I know a lot of good people who believe in other Gods, who's right? I believe that if you live your life with respect for others, no matter what God you believe in, your soul will live in eternal happiness. I love you Sam and miss you

Gramma Apr 16, 2006

It's Easter Sunday and you will go in my heart to worship service this morning..I am honored to read scriptures today and hope I can get thru without thinking too much about you and missing you. Your Easter is where we all will be someday and you will be there to meet us..we think and talk of you alot and your picture reminds us of how short this life can be. you touched alot of lives and now we all need to touch others lives by being the best we can be and thinking of others each day. You were loved and ARE loved. hugs Gram

deborah Apr 16, 2006

you're in my thoughts and prayers...I remember a teeny tiny red-headed thing that came to stay and make a huge impact on your lives 19 years ago...it hardly seems possible that time has come and gone so quickly...cherish the memories and live your lives to the fullest each and every day...We love you guys and think of you every day....

Sam, I Love YOU Apr 16, 2006

Hey YOU, Happy Easter! Wish YOU were here!! Everyday without YOU is hard, and even harder on birthdays and holidays. Sam, YOU were born the day before Easter 19 years ago! Our own little miracle. YOU came a month early, proving YOU were born impatient and impulsive. Ready to tackle life and whatever it was going to throw at YOU. Now Your birthday is in 2 days (19th), but YOU will 4Ever be 18. My heart aches for YOU, the plans YOU made and never got to do, and all the what if's that will now never be. I Miss YOU so much SAM! Love YOU 4Ever, Mom

Dad Apr 15, 2006

Hey Sam, Easter is tomarrow and we will all be wishing you were here to hunt eggs with us. We missed you when we colored them on Thurs. I'll talk to you in church tomarrow, love you lots

Papa Apr 15, 2006

hey sam....really miss u....ALOT...nothing seems the same ne more...the rain won't stop....the sun doesn't shine half as bright as it use to...holidays aren't as cheerful and joyous...there is just something missing in all of us...we all lost a little piece of our heart that day and those pieces died with u...and i know that those pieces will never be replaced....until i meet you heaven..that little piece will return..and i know one day i shall go and i will spend every heavenly moment with u just like we did here...i love u soo much and miss u incredibly!!!

I'll Love YOU Always and 4Ever, Mom Apr 15, 2006

Hey Sam, An old friend of yours came by tonight. Remember Rhen! He didn't know, and was sadden and shocked to hear that you left us. Makes me wonder how many others don't know? Like Mrs. Allen said "There was just something about Sam". SAM, YOU had so many friends from many different walks of life from everywhere you went. YOU had the gift of making others feel comfortable when they were around YOU. That, YOUR big Heart, and YOUR way of always knowing what to do or where to go for fun made YOU a Great Friend. God I miss YOU So Much! YOU not only were my Son, You had reached that age where we were becoming Friends too. I Loved talking to YOU and sharing things with YOU. The way YOU would listen and then do that laugh of yours! Each night when I go to bed and every morning when I wake up I ask myself, Why YOU?

Apr 15, 2006

Sam. Your Birthday is coming up. I told your mom I want to do something for your Birthday. We miss you alot. Sara comes home tonight. I was so afraid for her to go away. Sam you need to know that you are in all of our HEARTS. I know everyone says the same thing, but life will NEVER be the same since your gone. Your are MISSED SOOOOOOOO MUCH. love you!

Mar 27, 2006

Until We Meet Again. Each morning when we wake, We know that you are gone. And no one knows the heartache, As we try to carry on. Our hearts still ache with sadness, and many tears still flow. What it meant to lose you, No one will ever know. Our thoughts are always with you, your place no one can fill. In life we loved you dearly, In death we love you still. There will always be a heartache, and often a silent tear. But always a precious memory of the days when you were here. If tears could make a staircase, and heartaches make a lane. We'd walk the path to heaven and bring you home again. We hold you close within our hearts, And there you will remain. To walk with us throughout our lives Until we meet again. Our family chain is broken now And nothing will be the same. But as God calls us one by one The chain will link again. Author Unknown

Gramma Mar 26, 2006

Sam i made a poem for you--- Your heart is like a clock and you clock just stroke twelve. That Phone call that you get. that phone call you've been dreading You cry,you shake, you can not breath, he is dead, the one thing you can't believe\ You walk in the door,looked up at the wall, seeing the picture of the loved on you have lost. Places that you go, places that you are, eyes look at you near and afar. People who you thought were you friends dont even ask how you are. He was like my brother,even though he passed away.Forever in my heart,for you will stay!!! love you alot and miss you like crazy <3 Sara

Gramma Mar 13, 2006

Hello dear grandson...yesterday was really tough in church. I was worship leader and read the scripture about Blessed are those who mourn" for they shall be comforted...I know thats true and my faith is so important to me to get through your loss to our family...and as I looked over the small congregation I saw freinds who were crying too...one had lost her husband in July, one a sister in August, one a nephew killed in Iraq last spring, one a grandchild seriously ill and not expected to live much longer, one with both paretns begining alzheimers and that s a loss too...so there were so many hurting an mouring...not just me..not just our family...some days are easy to get thru but some are just a bunch of tears at odd times..you are thought of alot and I pray for all your family to realize they will be comforted through this unbelievable time of aching..Whatever Gods plans are for our family I'm sure it'l be to honor your memory while being the best we can be in using the gifts and abilites we have been given for others...Some day we'll find all the answers and know why.... with Love Gram

Cameron Mar 12, 2006

good morning..on my way to church soon and just thought I"d say you will be thought of during worship time as I have so much to be thankful for..you in my life..I'm learning to be much more aware of others in their sorrow and loss too..it's amazing how many people are facing just what we are...loss of a loved one...always in my heart. Gram

Dawn Schnitzer Feb 19, 2006

Thank you Joyce for sending us Sam's Celebration of Life remembrance and articles. Sam, I only met you when you were a little guy and then again when you were nine years old. When Uncle Jon and I heard the news we were so sad and couldn't believe that you were gone :( We wish we had gotten to know you more when you were with us. The military moved us so many places and now we are here 3,000 miles away. I know you have found peace in heaven. You are close in our hearts always. John and Joyce, we love you and miss you guys. Just reading these posts is bringing tears to my eyes.

Papa Feb 16, 2006

Hey Sam... just wanted to tell you how much i miss and love you....and I can't look at life the same with out you....i know one thing i've learned from all this...and that is to appreciate life for everythiung that it is and to tell someone you love them more then you usually would..because you never know if it's going to be the last time you can say that to them...and i really wish i could have had a last chance to tell you what a wounderful person you are...and i wish there was just one more night of you calling me and ashley to come pick you up from a friends or you calling me and asking if u can come chill with me in the garage or whatch T.V with me and my brother...just one last time sam...i wish we could all have you for one last time, even one second of you in our lives and i think we would all be a little happier... i know it would be the best one more second EVER! I love you sam and i can't explain how much i miss you and want to be with you..R.I.P friend...

Britney B. Feb 16, 2006

I Love You Samuel.....<3.<3.<3 I will never forget your warm & loving smile. I still can not believe your are gone. You were one of the good ones & its unfair that you were taken so early in your life. I love you!!!!!!

Feb 16, 2006

Sammy, I miss you every day and think of you all the time. I hope you know how much we all miss you! You are amazing!

Jacque Feb 15, 2006

Hey Sam! I know this is just a little late, but Happy Valentine's Day! The day just didn't seem so loving like so many other valentine's have. It's hard to feel happy and lovey dovey and all that crap knowing that you're not here. I miss you tons and think abt you everyday. Gosh! I wish I could turn back the hands of time and make everything ok again. It's so hard to think that we will never see you again or never get to hear your crazy remarks or hear abt the misadventures of Sam. All those stupid little things that once drove everyone crazy now seem endearing. It's so amazing how one person can have this much of an impact on so so so many people. Then again, you're Sam; you ALWAYS made an impact on people, and left your mark wherever you went. Eleanor Roosevelt had a saying that I think describes you; she said "Many people will walk in and out of your life, But only true friends will leave footprints in your heart." I know you've left your footprints in so many of our hearts. I love you always and will miss you forever.

Vince Feb 15, 2006

Hey sam, Iv been thinking about u alot lately and how it still doesnt seem real, Everyday i wish i would just wake up and you would be in your room sleeping but it never happens, Its kind of like a bad dream i will never wake up from, I just wish you wher here to help me through everything.... Miss you, Love you ALWAYS

Papa Feb 15, 2006

Hey Sam, Happy Valentines Day You big stud, I can hear you saying "faaag" and then i'd give You a big kiss on your cheak, i'd see You smile even though You were totaly embarrassed in front of your friends. Love You and miss You so much

Cameron Feb 14, 2006

I know i wouldnt normally say this to you but happy valentines day. i havent writen on this site in a whyle but i think about you every day. the other day i was at your house and something happened i cant remember what but i was waiting for you to say one of your trademark sayings from the kitchen but it didnt come. for some reasion this little reminder of you absince hurt alot and it was hard to sit there and watch the music video or whatever we were doing. you are greatly missed love cameron

hannah Feb 14, 2006

happy valentines day sam. i wish you could be here to spend it with all of us. i miss you like crazy. i still cant believe you are not here. i love you so much sam and miss you every day even more. happy valentines day

Britney B. Feb 14, 2006

I saw your Mom today & I saw the card she bought for you, & she's right it is a perfect card for you. I showed her some new pictures of where you were & we cried together. I miss you sooo much, & I will love you always & forvever. You are ALWAYS IN MY HEART!!!

MOM Feb 14, 2006

SAM, Happy Valentines Day Sweetheart! Found the perfect Valentine card for YOU and couldn't help but buy it. It hurt not to buy you your sweet factory candy, the "t-shirt" and cd or dvd that you'd usually get for your Valentine gift from us. MISS YOU So Much Every Single Day. Like the Valentine card I bought you says; "Having a Son like YOU is like going to a movie..., We Laugh, We cry, We cover our eyes when it gets too scary, but then in the end Everything turns out Great! So true until that day in Nov. that changed All Our Lives Forever. Sam, I Love YOU !!

chris mccausland Feb 14, 2006

Hey Sam. It's been a short while since I've written. It's hard to find the right words to say sometimes. I wish we coulda had more memories together and hung out more. But I still think abt you every day and every night. I miss you so so so much. I miss hearing the stories abt your mishaps and the trouble you used to cause. What a character you were. I love you and always will. There is not one person in this world that will EVER in a million years be able to replace you. No one comes close to the person you were. I love you forever. Miss you a million bajillion.

Vanessa Feb 7, 2006

Hey. We didn't know eachother very well but I spent a lot of time in class around you and you definitely made class time interesting. I remember that time in Mr. Sale's class when you always brought those stupid rubber bands to school and would shoot them around the class. Gawd, Mr. Sale confiscated so many of those and was so confused everytime you came out with more. Remember when you revealed your secret pocket in the zipper of your pants where you hid them... So disturbing but I've never forgotten it and I always end up laughing about it. I was looking through some of my old pictures and I found one from when I was dating an old boyfriend and you're in it. I do believe it was at Disneyland for Grad nite or something at Oak View. *sigh* I can't believe you're gone. I just found out like, 10 minutes ago and I'm kinda confused. I hope you're doing better where you are now... Maybe one day I'll post those pictures of you at Disneyland. I'm sure more than a few people will appreciate them... Nessa

Papa Feb 6, 2006

I LOVE YOU AND I MISS YOU EVERYDAY!! P.S. it's my first day and i already met someond and i told them about u...ALREADY...thats how important u r :)

Britney B. Feb 6, 2006

Hey Sam, just got back from Mammoth, theres a ton of snow, but im sure you already know that. When I go up to Mammoth I seem to get really angry, until I just let it all out & cry. I miss you so much, & this pain will never go away. I LOVE YOU!

Feb 5, 2006

Sammy Miss you sooooo much! So unfair that you aren't here!

Dad Feb 5, 2006

Hey Sam, still can't believe it, i look in your room and hope to find You sleeping in so i can turn the light on and leave it on so it pisses you off and You get up and start the day. Love You

Mom Feb 5, 2006

Hey Sam, Went to lunch yesterday w/ Greg, Jeremy, Devin, Johnny, Ray (&Angie), Nathan, Andrew, Jay and Sean. We had a great time talking and catching up. It was surreal being with them all and You not being there too! I look at each of Your friends and see a piece of You. You were Lucky to have had so many Great Friends (the above being a few of the "many") in Your short Life, and for that I am very Grateful. I will Never understand why you had to leave us so early!? My Heart is Forever broken, I Miss You and will Love YOU Forever & Always.

Ash B Feb 5, 2006

hey sam remember that time when you, your dad, and brandon were changing the tire on your truck after a flat, and you were making fun of it cause it looked all gay with that small tire. Ant then brandon asked your dad what the tatto on his arm meant and you said it means im gay.some good times thanks for bringing me off roading (romping) up the b hill going miss you forever.

Dad Feb 3, 2006

SAM, I Love You Always & Forever. You will Always be My First Born, My Baby, My Son. I think about You All day long, every day and I will Forever Miss You. Mom

Dee Abbema Feb 3, 2006

I didnt know Sam all that well, infact we had only met a few brief times. But I always got such a great feeling from him. He and his family are very close with my son and that means alot to me!! Chris would talk about Sam like he was his big brother , he would tell me stories of things Sam did and we would laugh and laugh, Im going to miss that, Im going to miss Sam. I didnt need to be his close friend to be close to him, I didnt need to be close to him to have this be a tragedy in my life. He was that powerfull!!! God bless him and Joyce, John, Vince , Angela and Christopher!

Feb 3, 2006

LOVE YOU, MISS YOU

Dad Feb 2, 2006

Hey Sam, so I have been hearing a lot of rumors going around. Everyone who really knows the truth are the ones that love you and are your true friends, and there are a lot of them. The ones spreading the rumors or believe them never new you or the Manocchia family. I was really angry and hurt till I actually made the call to Mammoth/Bishop and they confirmed it. We see the Biglows often, they all stop by and we talk for a while. We are going to see Devon, Jay, and Greg this weekend, and hopefully Ray. Your friends call and stop by reguraly, it's really nice. Love You and miss You lots

Vince Feb 2, 2006

I didn't know you very well, but your family was extremely supportive to me. I knew a long time ago you were an excellent older brother! My condolences to your family for their loss.

I miss the many moments we spent together. I remember that one time we all slept in a tent in my backyard & you woke me up & we put make-up on everyone's faces while they were sleeping.

as time goes on I can never forget all the times we had memories i protect seems like yesterday when i last saw your face you're no longer here and no one can replace all the times we had wish they could happen again I'll hold you in my heart in my heart to the end if I could make a change it'd be me not you so hard to sit and cope, so sad but true

Gramma Jan 25, 2006

Dear Sam, here I am again...it's not easy doing the usual stuff and then thinking of you and starting to cry... A friend said it was hard to have unconditional love for God in times like this!! boy was she right!! I'm trying hard to understand it all and really getting nowhere...I know the bottom line is we'll be together again and thats what it's all about..being together ..and the rest of us being better people in the mean time...and being there for eachother thru the tough days. I know there are millions of people sad like our family and I need to remember all of them as I go about each day. know that you are thought of all the time. as you of course can see...Love Gram

Courtney S. Jan 25, 2006

Hey sam! i was just thinking of you so i thought i would write to you and say I LOVE YOU and MISS YOU R.I.P.

Dad Jan 25, 2006

Hey Sam, I don't think the pain of missing You is getting any better, it's only been a couple of months, I think it will last a very long time. I hope I can start smiling more when I think about You instead of crying. Miss You

Mom Jan 25, 2006

Life will NEVER be the same without YOU! Our Family will NEVER be the same without YOU! Missing YOU so much...................WILL LOVE YOU ALWAYS and FOREVER!

Sam, I miss you so much noting will ever be the same with out you, I wish you wher still here to help me through all the bullshit life throws out. No one will ever be able to replace you or even get close. Love you forever, miss you always Vince

Jan 25, 2006

I really can't believe it's been two months. Everyday I wish you were here with us, i miss your handsome smile and your contagious laugh. Natural Ice just isn't as good as it used to be. I can't wait to kick it with you again. I love you so much, thank you for everything you have done for me.

Zach Jan 24, 2006

Sam you touched so many people its amazing. I remember wen we went to lindero and i was a few grades lower than you with vince, and everyone at the school knew who you were. I thought of you as someone that i would never be able to talk to but that all changed when me and vince became best friends. I think it was when you were in 8th grade you and some of your friends dressed in fat man costumes everyone in the school thought it was awsome except maybe the teachers but you didnt care. These little things have come to my attention after your passing and made me miss you even more. looking at your picture right now and just think of your family and how they push through everyday knowing their SON, AND BIG BROTHER arnt coming home. love you and your family so much thanks for for your help on everything love you.SRM 4 LIFE

Taylor Jan 24, 2006

Sam 2 months have gone by and I still think of you every day. I was learning something about some history guy in this class in arizona today and I thought of how we had learned it last year at Oak View and made fun of him because he lived in a forest and didnt like people. I miss living down the street and seeing you everywhere. Love you. Miss you

Emily Jan 24, 2006

Samuel i love you and miss you.

Britney B. Jan 24, 2006

Thinking about you, & missing you always! Love You.

Jacque Jan 24, 2006

Hey Sam! Well it's been quite a different 2 months without you. It's just not the same and it never will be. It's different not hearing abt what kind of trouble you got in today or hearing that SAM, Vince, and Angela will be comming down. It's amazing that one person can have such an impact on so much and you just never realize it until that person is gone. You had an amazing impact on so so many people. I miss you everyday. You'll always be in my heart and on my mind. I love you and will love you forever and ever and ever. Miss you!

I keep thinking of the last time we hung out, it was the weekend before you left for mammoth. we were all at nick's house just enjoying ourselves doing the same old stuff. for some reason at this party we bonded a lot, we were kickin it till the end. i wish i had more time with you sam, you had a way of making anyone and everyone smile. i know katelin and brandon really miss you over at katelins all the time, i miss coming over to katelins house to find you there too. we all miss you every single day bro. love one of your many home girl's, tori.

Zach Jan 18, 2006

Dad Jan 18, 2006

hey Sam, found some old pics, You Vince and me went to Mohave to do some shooting, remember?. We had that 22rifle and Grandpas 12gauge shot gun. You must have been about 10 and could'nt wait to get your hands on that shotgun. You had never shot one before and I told you it's going to kick real good. You must have shot that thing about 10 times, your shoulder was sore for a week!, but you could'nt wait to go again. Love You, Miss You

Britney B. Jan 18, 2006

Sam, Love You!

seadremrdeb Jan 18, 2006

You came into this world so fast...Like a rocketship blast...always racing towards the future...no time for the past...Wanting to growup a little before your time...now you've left us too soon... no reason...no rhyme...I knew you when you were a wee tiny babe...all red hair and wrinkles....your fate not yet known...but already the seeds for your future had been sown...Your father's pride...your mother's joy...for you see...their first baby boy...in you they had such hopes...such dreams...for a life to be filled with plans and schemes...The rough and tumble of little boy play...the quiet times at the end of the day...But now it is too quiet...the sound of you is gone...or so it may seem...when all we really have to do is close our eyes and open our hearts....then we will know that that we will truly never part...for you will live on...never really gone...a gentle hand to guide our spirit and our souls...until it is time to meet again where the streets are paved in gold....Joyce and John...Vince and Angela...I love you like you are family and treasure the friendship you have given to me and my family through the years...Know you are loved and that Sam was loved beyond words...Deborah & John

Courtney S. Jan 18, 2006

HEy Sammy i LOVE you

Mom Jan 17, 2006

Sam, I Miss and Love You So Much It Hurts. I will never forget your 18 (and a half) wonderful years! And I have "The Green Box"! You always laughed about "THE BOX". It's the box of Sam things and memories. We actually laughed about it the Tuesday before you left for Mammoth, because I had found another "something" to add to it. You thought I was Crazy and said so. I will Love You Always and Forever.

Britney B. Jan 17, 2006

I love you more & more everyday,& I miss you with my entire heart. I'll never ever forget you Sam. Love You.

Gramma Jan 16, 2006

Dear Sam, Grampa gave me an article to read from the LAtimes this morning about the loss of a loved one..it speaks to mourning and how there is no right way and no time limit and more..it was good to read .. we talk of you and even at an 80th birthday party (for a friend from church) a retired pastor asked about your family ...I hadn't seen him in a long time ...He knew of our sadness and had written a note and sent a memorial too. soooooo many people care...We are so fortunate to have such wonderful people in our lives. much love Gram

Danielle and Baby Lilian Jan 15, 2006

Hey Sam ... miss you so much ... Lilian is going to be a year in 2 months ... it's so sad that you're not here to watch her grow up ... she's so big now ... about to walk and talking a lot ... when she becomes old enough she will know so much about you and how special you were to so many people ... i miss you Sam ... it's so hard to believe that you're actually gone ... I know your happy in heaven, looking over all of us ... until the day we meet in heaven, i will be thinking about you all the time!!!

Dad Jan 15, 2006

hey Sam, You have so many friends and family thinking of You all the time, it makes the hurt a litte better everyday. I don't think it will ever go away but it's comforting knowing there are lot's of people who love You. Miss You

January 14 Jan 15, 2006

Sam I went to Jen's wedding tonight. I miss you. It made me think of Mammoth and all the great times we all had up there. I miss you, I miss your family and I miss your mom. Life will never be the same without you. I love you.........

mom Jan 14, 2006

Miss you so much today (& everyday). Doesn't seem possible or even real that our lifes are still going on without You. Everyday I want to call or text message you. I used to share so many things w/You and you'd always laugh. Lately it had been about Angie, and you were so proud of her and getting so protective too. You'll Always be the Greatest Big Brother Vince and Angie could ever had have. YOU Loved them with all your Heart, You were always there for them, and You Always watched out for them. I will Love You Always and Forever!

Gramma Jan 14, 2006

It's me again. didn't sleep well the last couple nites so talked to you alot and thought of many things. I thik I've decided to go back to journaling as I did before you left us..I kind of made a list of all the people who I have known since my childhood who have lost loved ones and it's overwhelming..I think I'll be trying to be more compassionate to those standing next to me in the grocery line, at the p.o., at the bank, and places as they are bound to be suffereing some sadness just like I am...I count my friends and think of all their losses and it makes me stop and think more of others.. I looked around at temple and church and counted friends who have lost dear ones and it's amazing..I think I'm the only one and there are so many when I finally think of others and not just myself. we again received memorial cards yesterday and from people who have lost 2 sons...that reminder broke my heart. you are thought of and loved and I think I learned from this that if I reach out more to others and don't try to hold it all in I'll be more at peace. thanks for the talk the last couple of nites. love Gram

Dad Jan 14, 2006

I keep expecting to see you one day soon, like you're gonna walk through the door after your family. It's hard to think that that won't be happening. I miss you everyday. I wear the chain with your pic on it that my mom got for Christmas. It's so beautiful. I love you much and will miss you forever. Not a day passes by that you aren't on my mind, in my thoughts or in my heart.

Zach Jan 12, 2006

You are the big guy sam that many of us look up to. It so unreal that your not here, and sitting in your spot on the couch or outside on the bench. I feel that i can take on the world now, because i know you will always be there for me and everyone else down here. Missin you all the time. SRM 4 LIFE.

Gramma Jan 12, 2006

You were asked about today with our friends from Arizona....they care. WE keep receiving tribute cards from people from the temple and from old friends who didn't write earlier...or who we finally felt we could tell after they sent christmas messages...immediately they responded in love and prayers for the whole family. An old gentleman in his late 80's who I knew at St. Patricks 10 years years ago who moved to his daughters in S.F. wrote me after christmas and sent a gift of prayers that will continue for a whole year from the Benedictine Monks in Washington...wow...thats so thoughtful. I receive the love from all these friends too...my friends at hospice ask about your family as well. Today I wore your chain and felt you close to my heart as always...sending hugs to you love Gram

mom Jan 12, 2006

I love and Miss You So Much. I Think About YOU Every minute of Every day. I don't think I will ever get used to not having YOU here w/me, w/us, w/our family. Without YOU, our Family will NEVER again be whole. You will always be my Baby, My Boy and I will Love YOU Forever & Ever.

Britney B. Jan 12, 2006

Dad Jan 11, 2006

Thinking of you always, Love You

Gramma Jan 11, 2006

thinking of you and hope to see your family soon..life keeps us busy even when we don't want to be.. our visitors left and although we enjoyed them it was hard to keep an "up" in my days for them when thinking of you and your family so often..I changed pictures on my frig and on the kitchen board but you are where you have been since your granduation...front and center...with hugs to the beyond. Gram

Britney B. Jan 11, 2006

Adam Jan 10, 2006

Sam, I never got the chance to know such a great person but from what my bro tells me you are. You have given me the opportunity to see how great an older brother can be. I will show the same respect you showed zach to vince. Thank you for being there for zach when I couldnt be. I appreciate it greatly. I'll be a bigger brother to him now more than ever! rest in peace. Thank you! peace n love man....

Jimmy Jan 10, 2006

Yo Sam. Johnny's brother here. I just wanted to say thank you for being such a great friend to my little bro. You are one of the true ones. And thats hard for Johnny, well anyone, to find. Remember when I took you guys to the mall and you two had those pictures taken? I still have one of those pics in my wallet. And that picture says it all. You two enjoyed life. And we should all appreciate that. I know I do. You and Johnny were, and will always be, unstoppable. Thank you Sam.

Gramma Jan 9, 2006

thinking of you and wishing we could have seen you at Sonnys birthday yesterday..he loved being with you kids and the picture from last christmas shows my gang of 7 grandchildren..what a cool bunch. I wear my chain with you on it some days and it keeps me in touch with how precious life is.. thanks for blessing our life with the gift of yours. hugs Gram

Love you sam!

mom Jan 8, 2006

Dad, Angie, Vince & Chelsea, & I all went to sushi for dinner tonite after Angie's basketball game. We all think of you every minute of everyday, but there are certain "Sam" things, and sushi is one of them. I think all our "first" time having sushi was w/You. Remember You would call me when you worked at Flairs & I would meet you for lunch. Remember that one time when the guy making the sushi took the chopsticks out of my hands while I was eatting, and put a rubberband on them because I was having such a hard time! You laughed so hard. I loved it when You laughed! You were so handsome & full of life. Life will never be the same without You. I Miss & Love You so very much.

Dad Jan 8, 2006

hey Sam, Love You much

Jacque Jan 8, 2006

Hey Sam! I love you and miss you. It's so different withou you here. Some days are harder than others. As sad as I(and everyone who had the priviledge of knowing you) am, I'm thankful for the memories I have. We've had some great memories over the years. I wish there could be more. Miss you everyday.

Chels. Jan 8, 2006

Everybody has so many memories yet no one knew we had so little time. I cherish the few memories i have with you and they seem to replay in my head day and night. I remember having dinner with you and your family one night, you stormed into the house all hungry and complaining about it, yet once we all sat down to eat (taco's i think) you all talked and laughed like there wasn't one care in the world. Its not the same without you sitting at that table. Everyone loves and cares for you, that will remain the same.

Dad Jan 7, 2006

Miss You

Vince Jan 7, 2006

Love you

January 2, 2006 Jan 2, 2006

Well Sam, it's a new year. Everybody misses you very much. In the last week, it's been the 1st time that it has really hit me. It's tough that your not here. To think that you will never help me again with little jobs. To think that I never will have the chance to tell you I Love You again or to see your face when I say it. To see you smile or when you would just give me a hard time. My Heart Hurts very much right now. I hope it is beautiful up there and I hope your looking down on us and guiding us through this. I love you
