I cannot express how saddened I am to see Samara has passed. She was a bright spot for me at work and she always had something to uplift and inspire her fellow co workers and fellow store Managers at The Children's Place. My condolences to her family.- Anna ,SSM, Lighthouse Outlet

We are so sorry that we were not "there" in respect of Samara and the family, but we just heard the news today. There are no words that can express our sadness at hearing of your loss of beautiful Samara. She was a true asset to her family and I know Stacey, along with the entire family, is mourning her loss and is finding it unreal to think of life without her. You are in our hearts Stacey! Our love and prayers go to Giovanni and Gianna and we are sure that the love and support of their family will bring them through this tragic loss. Bobby, remember her strength and love and continue that on by being there for the family ... you can do it! And Shelly, no parent should bury their child ... our prayers and love are with you today and always. Love and prayers to all of you, Dave & Mary Kay Duda

Dear Gulino and LeBron Family,

"No love, no friendship, can cross the path of our destiny without leaving some mark on it forever."
- Francois Mocuriac
I would like to send my deepest condolences. Samara and Stacy have been dear friends to my sister Alejandra for many years and have been known to me as family. I was able to see the bond that they had and admired each one of them as I grew. Samara was a wonderful person and will forever be in our family’s heart.

Love Always,
Michelle La Luz

Love,
