We were devastated to hear about your tragic loss. Sam was a dear friend to my daughter, Kaylin, and was in her 1st grade class. Sam could always brighten up the class with her smile and her laugh. Kaylin is very sad about the loss of Sam and Alyssa. We tell her that she has "two little angels friends" in heaven now. Look to the Lord in your sorrow and He will comfort you. We will keep your family in our prayers.
