Life story

Samm lived a life full of laughter, adventure and kindness. She was the first person in the room to offer help without judgement. She would jump up to clear to the table and help to clean up (unless it were dishes). She would lend you the shirt off her back or a shoulder to cry on, offering a warm embrace. She was a great collector of many things, an undiscovered artist and a poet. Her love for animals was unmatched. She had a tremendous love for her cats: King, Cheshire, Salem, Onyx and her 4 “Grand” kittens. She was extremely crafty, loved to create her own recipes, bake, and share the end results with her loved ones. In memory of Samm, have a kitchen dance party while creating a new recipe and share this with the people who mean the most to you.
