thank you for the memories filled with fun and laughter. love you sammy.

I think this was in Kindergarten but all the way throughout elementary school Sam and I were insanely close. We did sewing club together and did chorus together for many years. I even went to the bakery before it was fully opened so we could hang out after. Even though Sam and I lost connection throughout Junior High and High School, he played a major role in shaping who I am today. We shared so many memories together and I will forever cherish the times we spent together.

This was taken before opening night of Snoopy in 8th grade. I was in chorus with Sammy and was in Snoopy with him. He was always my biggest supporter. He always carried the best energy with him and could always light up a room. His personality was unforgettable just like all the memories he and I shared. I will miss him more than words can describe.

From the day I met Sammy Johnson I knew he was the best person to have in one’s life . He was always able to make a joke about everything and just knew how to have a good time . And he was just the type of person to be loving and caring towards the people around him . I was extremely grateful that I was able to have a person like Sammy in my life he was always there  if I needed a person to talk to and if I ever needed someone to make me laugh .He was just one of the best people to be around and he always lit up the room with his smile and laughter . I will miss you and love you forever . -His dear friend Makayla Rosa 

My family and I send our deepest condolences -The Rosa Family 

Samuel, I will never forget the day I met you. You were just 2 years old and spoke so clearly, "hi I'm Samuel"  with the cutest face and cheeks I had ever seen. From that day almost 14 years ago we have been family. I was lucky enough to spend so much time with you and watch you grow up alongside your wonderful parents. You were the kindest sweetest soul, had the best energy and always made me laugh with your bubbly personality. You always gave the sweetest hugs. I could always count on you to listen to great music in the car and watch great shows with. I will forever cherish our memories and our sleep overs, we had the best times. I miss you Samuel and always will. I love you so much!

I wish I could take the pain you are feeling away right now. May you know we are thinking of you and hope that brings you some comfort. Please 🙏 accept my sincere condolences 🌹.....

My most heartfelt condolences to Doreen, Shawn, Family and Friends. I remember when he was little coming in the office asking for a snack and always willing to give everyone a hug and smile. I can’t even begin to understand why this Angel left so soon but I know he left a mark in the hearts of many. I’m praying for strength and compassion for all. May you rest, dance and be you forever Sam.
🙏🏼 💔 . 
Lizzette and Family 

I miss and love you so much Samuel 💔🌈🕊️

I’m so sorry about Sammy. He was an amazing person. I will always remember how we had “Wheel Of Misfortune” as he called it. He would always say our names so enthusiastically. He always made theatre fun to be in. We may have not talked a lot, but he was still a good friend of mine.

Sammy is a beautiful soul. I’ve been teaching him for two years now in Theatre. You couldn’t help but laugh with him around. He has left a bright spot on this world that will not fade.

I love you so much Sammy , one of the top people that really made me feel like I should come to school♥️

The way you stopped and prayed so you wouldn't have to dissect your rat specimen will always stay with me😅 , as will your bright and genuine spirit. You may not have started the year with us but we finished strong together. I am grateful to have had you as a student.
Rest Peacefully my "Wild Chicken Nugget",

    So many memories you have given the world. So many you have given me. When you were younger, every time you came in for your haircut, you came right up to me and asked if I was ready for you. All the clients that heard you would smile, and look at you walk either back to the front to wait for me, or sit in my chair, and you brought the sun with you and made everyone smile. 
     You were so sweet to all those you met, and will continue to keep putting smiles on the faces of those you are with. 
                      Until we meet again, you will be missed, 
                                                                      Miss Susan

Sammy was the person who could light up a room just by walking in the door. He was the person you could count on to pick you up when you were down. He was the person everyone knew and loved. He was a walking ray of sunshine even on dark days. He looked out for others. He was one of my closest friends even though we drifted over the years. I will forever miss him. Rest easy bud ❤️

I am so truly sorry for your loss. Samuel made such an impact on my life and the lives of many others. He lit up every room he walked into, made everyone around him laugh, and made every day amazing. His smile was contagious and he will be dearly missed. I will always cherish our friendship.

April 27th 2021- this was our last chorus concert of the year, and it was right after we had snoopy the musical, we had so much fun and took so many pictures. Sammy is so loved and always will be and i hope he rests in love🤍🤍

January 6th, 2020- me and sammy met walking down the street. we both happened to be meeting the same person and we had the time of our lives. this was the start of an everlasting friendship 🤍

September 18th, 2022- CONAN GRAY CONCERT!! at the end of it, all of our makeup was ruined. our vocal chords were torn out. our clothes were sticking to our bodies. but it was all worth it

November 20th, 2021- we all went to the mall and shopped for all the things we didnt need. we saw this photoshoot place and we all wanted to go in it, so we bought some clothes and went in :) there are hundreds of pictures from that day. the owners of the photobooth loved sammy 🤍

The day Sammy and I met, we became friends immediately. He had this huge handheld fan and he just wanted to take pictures. He included me in them and captioned them “Me and my sister.” 💗💗

he was the sweetest kid ever and always lit up the room, especially in chorus & will always be missed .

To the family  of Sammy ,
My prayers go out to each one of you 
Sammy was such a ray of sunshine , I can still see him dancing around and singing 
May you all your troubles be gone and you can rest in paradise you sweet boy ❤️
