Thank you Meghan for contacting us about Sandy's passing. We are so grateful for her support of Peace of Mind Dog Rescue. She had been a donor for the last five years. I wish I had known her better. She sounds like a beautiful, compassionate person. We are so sorry for your loss and for the loss of this beautiful being on the planet, but we are thankful that she is not suffering any more.

Oh, Sam, I miss you so much! I miss our coffee after I walk MacKenzie;
I miss our intense conversations about the ridiculous, the serious, the weighty and the personal; I miss sharing about the falcons; I miss those little daily rituals. My dear, dear friend, you were, and are, a big, beautiful energy.

WAITING": I'm still waiting for your blue car to show up in front of the kitchen window. It's so incongruous, the fabric of this physical plane without your thread running through it. I know you are free,yet I'm still waiting for the bells on the front door to ring from your entry. Mostly I'm waiting for my cells to "get" that you've become your expanded self and are now "everywhere."

You will be missed, my quiet friend.  The goals we shared in life and in science will have to be carried on by others.  I wish your friends and family peace in knowing that you are free to float about with the doves.

Hi Sam-I-Am although we had some distance between us I still miss knowing you are here.  I think of the fun times we had, especially when you flew with Meghan to Ohidaho.  Remember when the futon closed with me on it.  That was one big laugh for all.  I know you can read this and hear my prayers,  I also know you are in a super great place now and your pain is gone.  I cherish you.

Dear Spirit of Sandy, I remember how kind and generous you were. How gentle. How intuitive, sensitive and supportive. How we had such great conversations, in depths that gave me new understanding, in light of your compassion. How much we laughed together. How you brought such joy to the workdays we shared. Thank you. May you receive the Love that Is Always, to embrace and guide you.

A lovely memorial, there were people there who were only meeting Sam for the first time through the sharing and stories - and they appreciated her life all the same.  I know Sam experienced the flood of love from Saturday. Thanks to all who gave of their time and presence to be there. ~ M

Happy Birthday, Sammie Sue, I miss you everyday. I miss your yes to the question of coffee and your winkle nosed "no" to anything unkind or confusing. Be free and guide others to the Peace that was so elusive to you in this life. Sandra you are so very loved. Everyday I still think you're commin' home. Thank you for 31years.

Hey there, Sam,
I'm still holding the high watch for you. We talk about you everyday. The Survivors of Suicide group is helpful. I realize that I would only want you to come home if you could be as free and happy and aware of life's purpose as you surely must be now.Thank you for being with us from the other side.We love you.

The holidays are here. You are near in our hearts and our thoughts. We found a Giants ornament that Deb was holding for you from way back before you left your body. Merry Christmas Sam. We, all of us, Miss you.

A year today.  Still I cannot believe this has come to pass.  Sandra,  you are all light and completely whole,  absolutely free.  I am trying not to be so sad when you are now so free from pain,  and  yet the sadness persists.  I love you.  Thank you for the amazing Grace you brought with you and left inside my heart.  Stay free.  Watch over all of us.

Dear Sandy and Jacque,
You are missed here on this plane, this realm, this planet, this day.
I think of you in the hot tub, Jacque next to you on the deck, at Y-Knot Ranch, morning coffee and chats, your kind and gentle spirit. I envision you in the safe, loving, beautiful place you were meant to be in.

Sam ... I could be formal and say "Sandra" but I still remember the day I asked you if I, too, could call you Sam. You took my question seriously, thought for a moment and then said, "I would like that." Now, that was a precious moment!!  .... Sam, I am wearing your teal hummingbird shirt today to honor your time of 'being mortal'. big love

Hey, Sam - Miss you...even though I know that you never really left.  I know you LOVE my orange electric car and hate the mess that the new  air conditioning fiasco left on the ceiling ... and the fact that I still do laundry after 10pm on occasion!  Think of you when I see a hawk playing on the wind and figure that is where you are doing your current expression!  Love to you!  Debster

Sam, still missing you, your wit and humor, your pretty face and gentleness.  Hope you have found the peace you so rightly deserve.

Love you Sam-I-Am!!!

Sigh ... Big Sigh ... Still miss our morning coffees ... Thanks though for sending the community of hummingbirds my way! ... Oh, thanks for keeping the high watch over all of us ... Love to you, Sam

Happy Birthday Sam-I-Am...............Love you.  Miss you.  I know you are having a wonderful life there in heaven.  We will meet again.

Love,
Mom (Barbara)

Happy Birthday! Just wish you, Jacque, Ruby and I could celebrate it together. Well, maybe we can! Lighting a birthday candle for you and sending you warm and loving birthday wishes. Love to you.

Thank you Sammie Sue for sending us so many winks and nods that you are close. On your birthday my heart aches just a tad bit more than every other day on the planet since you "left." You continue in our hearts and your good is still changing things through our memories of you. I love you. Happy Birthday - send a hello sign?

Hey, Sam - Happy Belated!!  Love that you're still around but could you return the missing knives?

Miss you, Pal.  Paying special attention to the breathtaking wonder of nature for you ...

Thanks for bringing all that missing stuff back ;-)
Much love!!

PS - Don't look ...I hear the Giants are struggling this year

Love you still and always.  You were a bright and caring mind and soul.  Miss you.  "Mom"  

Like every other day, I thought of you on the 17th of May. I wanted to come here and pay tribute but the internet wouldn't work in my favor that day. May 17 will never be a day that works in my favor. Sending Love, always, every day.

62 years old, Sam, somewhere, but not here. Still miss you. Still can't believe you left. Your own mind took you out, and why not? Learning about the details of your early life (post humously) only widens my compassion for your struggle. You fought a good fight, I saw it. It mattered. Stay free! Stay free. Happy birthday anniversary.

Well it says the 14th but in California is still the 13th !

Hi Sam,
Trying to remember this as a day that you set yourself free...I'm not there yet.
Sending love and knowing that you are not only free, but whole, perfect and complete.
Thank you for watching over my sermons/writing as Susanne Giesemann said u would. We love you.

Happy Birthday Anniversary!
Thank you for telling me about Robins before they appeared in Mac's water bowl. Thank you for all the signs that you are here in spirit. I still have this shred of hope that somehow you're gonna show up. The denial is so darn persistent. I know you are in a better place. Someday I will celebrate that!

4 years and in ways it's like yesterday. Still not free from the trauma completely but I know you are well and much better than you ever were. I can celebrate that now...You're always in our hearts and minds, Sammie Sue.

Your smile is still missed after so many years. We didn't see each other very often but when we did it was great fun.  I miss you Sam-I-Am.     Love, Your "Mama".

We welcome Kelly Wallace to your Circle Sam. You would have loved to know her!

Hi Sammie,
On this, the 5 yr anniv of your passing, I have decided that I will call this, not the anniversary of your death by Suicide, rather, it is for me your Last Physical Day. I know with total knowing that you are not dead. I know with total knowing that you have passed on from here & gone to a "somewhere or somehow" much better. I love u

Happy Birthday Sam!
5 Years with no cake! 5 years with no smiles radiating from your eyes;5 years gone the opportunity to surprise.
I miss you, Wondering if Birthday's are a thing where you arem when you no longer have breath to blow out candles!

Oh Sammie Sue, How I miss you. If only you could be here witnessing all the changes. I'm glad you missed the pandemic, and Trump, and these hard hard years. You're pure love and light. Godspeed still and peace my Margie marge. Somewhere and right here I know you are soaring on this, the anniversary of your last PHYSICAL DAY. Please stay near of part all that guides me. But mostly fly free

Hi Sam ... Got you some of your favorite flowers and they are sitting on the table. Just for you my friend. I do know that you are really here with us but it would be so good to have one of those discussions with you again! BTW, I now do the triple shot tall americano.  The quad shot that you liked is still too much for me!!  Love, Sandra

Sam…wanted to honor the day you went home.  Still miss our morning coffees.  See you … not soon but in time. BTW I do assume that the hummingbirds that dart around me are you getting my attention!

Marge E Marge!
Did ya see the tribute I made on FB? I love you as much as always. I don't always make it here becasue I am always talking to you wherever I am. Come to Connecticut! I feel you near all the time. Thanks for hanging around. Say Hi to Kathy for me!

Still miss our conversations, Sandra

Assume your now is, indeed, heavenly!

My dearest Sammy, Sue, parn, and every other nickname… I continue to feel you near even in Connecticut even  as I write, live, as I love as I laugh. I love you eternally. Megstrish

Happy 68th birthday dearest Sam. You’re in my heart every day don’t you know and I feel your spirit near. Still more love than could ever be measured. Show me to my new tribe here in CT. Love you

I'm back. I got through May 17th with you in my heart and on my mind. You're a regular visitor in both places.
Someone just said to me that they are sure you've moved on to which I replied that I do not do this because I think you need to hear from me...you do all the time...but for me. I need to say hi in this physical way. You will always be with me in my heart and mind.

Happy Birthday Marge!.
Thank you for all the visits. You would be 70 earth/humans years yesterday. We both know you are eternally now. I love you.
Parn. (Memily)

Marge, I can’t believe 11 years now. I can still feel you here in the way these big Connecticut trees whisper in the wind. I think you’d like the tattoos I got in memory of you: sun, moon, and stars and a hummingbird on some morning glories. I love you Marge. I wish you never left. I will never stop being grateful for having known & loved you.
