The boys and Tom are with us for Christmas. I’m looking after them for you! 🤶🏼😘

Gorgeous Sam. I only just found out from Helen that you have left us. So glad to have known you and to have seen you when our little ones were little but sorry to have lost touch. So many happy teenage memories especially at Greenbelt with Anna, Helen, Sarah and Andy. Your smile was so beautiful and I know Tom & the boys will miss you forever. Sleep well 😘❤️🙏

Happy Christmas Sam Not the same without you. Love you Miss you

Dear Sam, I only just found out that you’re gone. Noonie (Nicola) Kissell passed this week so I thought I’d look for you when I realised that you’re no longer on Facebook and I found this. Very sad that we can’t meet up again but I’m so glad for the time that we met up at the Cotswold Water Park and met each other’s kids. Farewell my friend. X Helen

Happy 50th Birthday lovely girl! Love you xx

Neither my head nor my heart can believe you have been gone for a year. I have learnt that grief is a constant companion but at least that means I carry you with me every day. Perhaps the years ahead will make it easier for to fulfil your mantra.. Don't be sad, be grateful. Nothing but Love Sam Charlotte xx

Hi, my name is Julie Wheeler, Sam and I connected as beginning teachers at Winton. I’ve lived abroad since then for many years, however whenever we have connected it is as if time hadn’t passed. The last time I spoke to Sam I said that I’d love to host the boys/ family if ever they came to Australia. Sam said that she would love that. I hope that I can keep in touch with the family. My home will always be yours. Much love to you all. ❤️

Goodnight my dearest Sam , until we meet again - love and duas from Yasmin, Qurban and family 💕xxx

Dearest Sam, Well, what a beautiful celebration of your life today! Your family and friends are all so lovely and you will always remain a true inspiration to me as a mother, friend and a teacher. All my love my darling Sam Maslen. We will support Tom and the boys as much as they want us to. Sleep well and rest in peace xxx ❤

'Cause you're a sky, 'cause you're a sky full of stars, I'm going to give you my heart, 'Cause you get lighter the more it gets dark, I'm going to give you my heart, I don't care if you tear my heart, I don't care if you do, 'cause in a sky, 'cause in a sky full of stars. I think I see you.. I think I see you.. You're a sky, you're a sky Full of stars, Such a heavenly view.. You're such a heavenly view.. Coldplay

People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did but people will never forget how you made them feel. Maya Angelou

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
