The words and story I have just read, I initially searched to find kind compassionate writings to send to my 9yr old daughter Hayley who had an operation today..Im divorced 7yrs with 5kids, and my exwife witholds all contact with my children..The tears I shed for your loss were real, and Im so grateful to have been part of Samantha's life and her family, albeit in a strange kind of way. She is in a lovely place dear mum, she loves you more everyday.
"Once you choose hope,anything's possible"..I pray now for you and your families health..God bless, Paul | |

May God give you the strength to go on..I cannot imagine the pain you live with and the thoughts of your childs last minutes on this earth..But it seems to me she died thinking of another the little boy she was carrying...I hope God had mercy on the soul of her murderer , because I could not...She was beautiful and special and I hope she knew God chose you to take care of her during her short life....... | |

Twenty-two in Heaven today, Happy Birthday Samantha, I love and miss you so much my little girl. I was sitting in church Wednesday night and I had this feeling something was missing it was the warmth of you sitting next to me; I miss your sweet voice singing and praising the lord. Everywhere I go, everything I do, the thought of you never leaves me. I know your safe sitting at Gods thrown sheltered in his arms. Samantha you are my Angel …………

I found your web page while looking around on my nieces memorial site. I noticed that your daughters birthday is Aug 4th and I just wanted to let you know that I will be thinking of you on that day. In my prayers.... Barb | |

hey brenda just wanted you to know i think about the families all the time and i grew up with misty's dad and i knew shelly she was a sweet girl, and i look at samantha's picture and i see an angel.i am sure she was a very sweet girl and you look in her eye's and wonder how this could have happened to some one so sweet and so innocent.I was at the shelly,misty,taylor and shawn's funeral and i can only imagine your pain because that day it was like a ton of bricks on my chest.I am a mother of 4 and a step mom to 2 more and i can,t imagine life without them or even any of my grand children.MAY GOD BE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AND SAMANTHA IS SMILING DOWN ON YOU AND SHE KNOWS SHE HAS A GREAT MOM DOWN HERE THAT SHE WILL SEE AGAIN SOMEDAY EVEN I CAN SEE A GREAT MOM IN YOU JUST FROM READING ALL THAT YOU HAVE PUT INTO WORDS!!!! MAY GOD BE WITH YOU AND YOURS | |

Where ever samantha is she is happy.May peace be with you.
I dont have a daughter. My youngest cousin visited me 4 days back.She is 14.I am 30. She had her first fall in love. She held to me and slept with me for two nights. 2 Days later my wife for her insecurities accused me of touching her. In the world i live in .... i cannot imagine such people exist. I am heart broken completely and then i saw samanta and fell in love with her...my healing process has started.. she is happy wherever she is.... she is away from harm. A heartbroken elder brother who lived his sister like a father and paid the price. :-) May God be with you in your trials. "The hours i spent with thee,dearest heart, are like a string of pearls to me.... i could over, each one apart, my rosary,my rosary." Amen. | |

Hi there, Well words cannot describe the emotions this tragedy has made me feel.. My heart goes out to immensely.. Hearing the strength and courage this beautiful girl had in trying her hardest to save not only her life but a helpless little boy, was absolutely inspiring, and also comforting to hear that this little boy was watched over.. You are a true angel Samantha, and I am absolutely positive, that this sweet angel is watching over you all!!... Don't let this tragedy, torment your lives anymore than it is..let it strengthen your lives in the will to let yourselves know, of how special, courageous and loving this beautiful girl is.. No one in there right mind, want to remember a person like, the sick man who took innocent peoples lives, because of his stupid insecurities, and I say and will always say....Everyone has the option whether to do things in there lives...as far as the drugs being at fault....they are there for the taking...and he took them...he chose to take them, they never chose him!!!....Please know that my heart and love extends out to you all!!...KEEP WATCHING OVER YOUR FAMILY SWEET LITTLE GIRL!!!

I am sorry for your torment. I knew Clay as a child and ran into him around 1993 when he was in school to be a minister. When I heard his name on the news the morning after those poor children were found I could hardly believe it. When I saw his boooking photo chills ran down my spine. I don't know how to express my sorrow for your plight. I have prayed for all of you to find peace someday. Thank you for sharing the tribute to your daughter. This was such an evil and sinceless act... | |

hi brenda not sure if you remember me. i use to play with sam when you lived off middle warren road in the trailer. I was staying with my grandparent on dixon Ln. but of course i moved and lost touch but i did manage to find out about this tragic event i felt so many emotions because it was on my birthday that her life was taken. I remember when clay was executed i was sitting in my drive was jumpping up and down and screamming hurray!!! it was a sign of relief but i just thought that i would say that i loved the book and i love samantha and i know that she is still watching over us and taking cafe of each of us in her own special way!!! GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN!!!!!
I LOVE U SAM!!!!!! | |
