It saddens me to hear the passing of Sam. I worked with her at CCHMC and she truly was a bright spirit in our office. I cannot remember a time where I did not see a smile on her face - she was always a pleasure to be around and able to cheer anyone up. A major reason why I was able to gain interest in coding and obtain my certification is because of Sam. She was always willing to help and give advice when needed. Her work computer and desk contained countless photos of her family - anyone can tell she truly loved you all. I am praying for your peace and comfort during this difficult time.

P.S. The photo attached is when she won Employee of the Month - a much deserved award!

Sam and her many faces and the joy she brought to anyone who was lucky enough to call her Frand!! How I will miss my Squirrel, my dear friend. Know you are a treasure, know you are loved by many, and know you will remain deep in my heart !!
