I really did not know her well or really at all , but what a shame for such a beautiful youngster to pass away at such a young age. I cant imagine what all the families are going through.
I hope Jesus takes care of her with God in heaven. My prayers are with the families always. May her memory be eternal forever! Zois si sas!
Dearest Dimitri and family. When Alex’s Papou past away, many years ago, Father Theo Anastas was the priest at Holy Trinity. Stacy was a strong pillar of are community and I ask him what do we do know? His answer, “We keep on dancing!” Lord give you the strength to keep on dancing. May her memory be eternal!
Our deepest sympathy goes out the the Samson family during this very difficult time.
There simply aren’t words to describe the loss and sadness we feel. We will always remember her as bright, sweet, funny and beautiful. May her memory be eternal.
Our deepest condolences and sympathies to the Sampson family and to all of Alexandra’s family and friends.
Jim, Dimitra and Stacey,
We are truly sorry for your loss. Words cannot express how our heart aches for you and your family.
You are in our thoughts and prayers.
All our love.
Hugs and prayers!!! May her memory be eternal!!! She will always be in your Heart!!
Sincerest condolences at this most difficult time. She now is home with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
There are no right words to erase the pain you all must be going thru. Please know we are thinking of you all during this time. Praying you all receive Gods Grace and feel his Loving arms around you all. We bumped into Alex a few months back and her and I had a little giggle as soon as I called out her name and pulled the mask down. ” Miss Kay!! How are you?” with that infectious smile of hers. Gone to soon but will be remembered Eternally for many of us. May God keep you all in his embrace today and everyday.
May Her Memory be Eternal,
Kay
I remember Alex as a little girl, happy and excited to be visiting Jim’s classroom at Cholla. I am keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.
Jim, Dimitra and Stacey and Family,
Our sincere condolences, our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. May her memory be eternal.
All our love,
Denise Chryss and Family
To my dear Greek dance teacher, Dimitri, your husband, daughter, and family,
My heart aches so badly for you. I never had the pleasure of meeting Alex, but if she was anything like her mother, she was beautiful on the inside and out! The words and pictures shared about Alex this week prove that to be true. From one mother to another, you are in my thoughts and prayers. God grant you peace and strength! Her memory will be eternal!
To The Sampson Family-
Our hearts go out to you all during this tragic time. Alex will be forever missed. During the time Karisa was sick and going through treatment, Alex was the one there for her from beginning to end. Karisa will hold that memory close to her heart always. Dimitri it was a pleasure to finally meet you after all these years though I wish it had been under different circumstances. Alex touched so many lives and hearts in her short time as we were able to witness that in these past 2 days. She definitely had a special sparkle to her. Alex will never be forgotten. We feel blessed to have seen and shared that sparkle. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the entire family and know that we are here if you should need anything. The Bateman Family – Kara, Nick and Karisa
Our deepest condolences to the Sampson family.
God give all of you strength. May her memory be eternal. My daughter and I briefly met Alex back in 2019. And for those short minutes we had talked to her we could see how bright and kindhearted she was. May she be at peace in paradise.
My heart breaks for your family. There are no words to express the magnitude of your loss. I am so sorry. I will miss seeing Alex and her beautiful smile. I’m grateful for our short time together and the impact I was able to have on her life. My thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time. May she watch over all us and stay forever in our hearts.
With love and sympathy,
Velika
