To the Tuethorn Family,
The Great Spirit is happy for the gift of Samantha in which he has given her wings so she can now travel further than she was able to here on earth. She will always be a gift. When you feel the breeze touch your cheek always remember that it's the Great Spirit saying thank you and also that it's Samantha giving you a kiss.

Samantha, my daughter-in-law, thank you for becoming a part of my life. I will truly miss you. I have alway admired your kindness, love and integrity toward family and friends. You were a good wife to my son, a good mother and a great daughter-in-law. You will always hold a very precious spot in my heart. LYA

How do you start anything like this, Well Samantha (Sam)
is my sister. We share so many memories of us growing up and having families of our own. To have lost Sam has been I have to say the worst time in my life. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you, Sam. I never realized until you were gone that you were and are still my best friend. You were always there for me even when I pulled away. You would never judge me, and no matter what we argued about we always forgave and loved each other so much. I remember when we were little I used to watch you sleep thinking how cute you were and how soft your skin was I used to smell your cheeks because they
smelled of baby powder even when you didn't have any on.
I continued to do that even when we were adults, you didn't like that though.
Its funny now I do it to Damian too. He doesn't smell like baby powder, but it reminds me of you. When I look at him I see you. Some days are harder than others, but some how we all get through it. For those of us that are the closest to you we always talk about you and think of you. I hate that we all lost you but most of all I hate that Damian and Chris lost you. You loved life, you love them. They both miss you sooo much. Damian talks about you and shows me your pictures all of the time. Chistopher just misses you and I know your with both of them if you can be.
I find myself getting selfish about you not to those really close to you like our parents or
Chris and Damian, or even my kids,
and Andy. But when it comes to everyone else missing you I have a hard time with that, not that everyone else wouldn't miss you but in life everyone didn't know you like we did they just all thought they did. Which is nice, I guess you just had a way of making people feel like they knew you really well. Or maybe it was because of how nice you are to everyone. In life you were angel like and I know now you are an angel. One day we will meet agian, And I will always keep my promise about Damian, I love him with everything I am just like my own kids. I promise to always tell him about you and share your life and the things you loved with him.
I love you always, Christina (Chrissy)

Sam,
It's been a hard year for everyone without you here to tie the family together. Sometimes we all want to express how much we miss you, and miss getting all the family together, but are afraid that we are intruding. I know that in time everything will work itself out, we just wanted you to know that, we are think of you and you will always be in our thoughts.
Love, Stephanie, Monica, Rocio, and John

This is to the people that were touched in your heart by Sam every day of her life, I met her when she was very young, She stood in my Wedding, walking down the walkway with her aunit Linda. From that moment i knew she was a good person with a heart that would be open to everyone she would met. Her love for her family and friends was something that would bath you in her light. She loved to draw and even helped my own to look to the future. She will be mist by all.

Samantha,
You should have enjoyed another 70 years to raise Damian and spend your old age with Chris reviewing your paintings and thinking of new creative pursuits. 24 was simply too young. You were too loved. Your talent too great. I am so very sorry to have lossed you. Love always.

Although I never meet Sammy I was touched and prayed for her recovery. She was such a young girl just starting her life. I pray for her family during this time that God will give them the strength and comfort from family and friends. Treasure her precious memories with you forever. With love and saddness I send my deepest sympathy to her son, husband, mother , father, siblings and all those who loved and touched her life. Angels are with her now taking her to heaven were she will always be at peace for eternity. She will always be in our hearts. Psalm 23. Love, Lilly's Best Friend
