Although I never met you, I feel as though I came to know you through the Mckissock family. You are and always will be a true inspiration. To see how people love you and feel the pain of losing you in this life shows how special you are. Much Love and Prayers to those left behind who must go on without you. I know in my Heart you have gone on to a bigger and better life. Watch over us all and we shall be reunited soon.

You all showed us how to be brave and strong for all who is around you. Even the ones you didn’t know. your daughter will never not know who her strong mommy was. your family and friends will make shore of that. and you will always be watching over her from heaven.

Sam- Knowing this was coming doesn’t make this any easier. I am heartbroken for your mom and Jo and Kayla and Floyd and everyone else that loves you. I know you’re not suffering, I know you’re not in pain, and I know you are up there drinking a beer and enjoying all the food that you have had to steer clear from for so long. I love you. I can never thank you enough for letting me be a participant in your short but meaningful life on earth. This is not the end it is only another chapter. You are now healthy, happy, and in an eternal paradise. I love you- and until we see each other again, please watch over all of us living in this crazy world. To the moon….<3
Sam,
Eventhough I didn’t know you. I have learned to get to know you through Mckissock and just what a strong and wonderful woman you were. My thoughts and prayers are for all who loved and knew you. You are truly and inspiration to us all to live life to the fullest.
R.I.P. Sam
Jeff, little Kayla and Sitler Family –
Although I did not know Samantha, I’ve seen the effect she has had on so many people! I have faithfully followed “Team Sitler” on FB over the past several months. Sam was a fighter, she fought a courageous battle. She now leaves you to be the fighter, She was an inspiration to many!! Grieve as long as you need. There is no time limit. Cling to one another in your sorrow.
May God hold you in the comfort of his loving arms & give you peace, strength and love for one another.
God Bless & wish we were there to give you all a hug.
Peggy & Bill
RIP Sam. You were loved so much by so many people. May you now be in no pain. Thank you for allowing me to know you. You were an amazing person.
Jeff, Although I didn’t know Sam, I followed Team Sitler. Your wife fought a hard and brave battle to stay with you. Heaven has another Angel and she will always be with you and Kayla. My deepest sympathy to your family. I hope all your good times and happy memories help you all thru this time of sorrow. RIP Sam
Sam, i know that we never meet but I feel like somehow we did.. The family you created at Mckissock is something strong that not only you could see but I see as well. I wish I was half as strong as you were. I know that no matter what you will always be in our hearts! One thing you won’t have to worry about is being forgotten. You have touched so many lives, hearts and have brought a sense of style to the people who loved you and will always love. Your purpose and passion in life was to “live life to the fullest”. You have left us so soon but one thing I can say is that you lived everyday with strength, love and passion for others! I hope you know that even though I never had the pleasure of meeting you that someday I will but until then I want to thank you for showing me how to live my life to the fullest everyday and to also keep a look out over your family at Mckissock and at home. You can only imagine how much we all miss you and love you! Enjoy eternal peace Sam, your courage and memory will never be forgotten! <3
Sam,
You will be missed by many and the shock will be imbedded in the minds of those who did not know about your battle. Tuesday God got another Angel and you are whole again. I asked God to wrap His loving arms around your family and friends. I will always remember your vivaciousness.
RIP Sam
Jeff,
You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Sam I remember her as a little skinny girl running around grandma B’s house her and daniele being the two favorites.then I turn around and you’re all grown uphaving a baby getting married.Lord has special plans for you obviously.it’s hard to believe that it’s usually the good people that suffer the most when the most violent and rude and ruthless go quietly I don’t understand why God is taking someone so good. your cousin ron Jr
Jolene, I didn’t know Sam , but I know how much you , your family , and friends love her.I’m so sorry for your loss.You’re a great sister! You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Dear Sam, We had a short time together but you were truly a precious part of our life. You were always so happy and smiling with a great attitude about you. We will truly miss you. You were a bright star in our lives. I remember that the last time I saw you you told me that one thing you learned through your fight was that life is too short to fight with anyone. I have stated that phrase to many people & I will always remember that statement. I, myself, will live the rest of my life with that thought. Thank you for being part of our lives. Our condolences to your husband, daughter, and family, and friends. God bless all of you!! Love
To the Sitler Family. I also did not know Sam personally, but she was a best friend of one of my family members. She was a fighter and an inspiration to all those who knew and loved her. She has gone on to better places now, where she will watch over you all. God Bless you all as you go through this journey in her life.
Condolences to the Sitler family. Our thoughts and prayers go out to your whole family. Psalms 147:3 says Jehovah God, “heals the broken hearted, and binds up their wounds.” May God bring you comfort and Peace.
God works in mysterious way.
Please rest in peace ma’am.
