I was walking on Moody Beach in Wells, ME.  It just so happened that
I was spending a summer morning walking with my family–The ironic
part is that I was thinking about my godson Sam and how he just had
to put his dog, Sampson, to sleep, and how difficult that must have
been for a 7 year old to deal with.  As I was looking for shells for
my son, I came across “Sam’s stone”, laying face up, in the sand, in
the waves.
I was so eager to call my Sam and tell him about what I had found.
When I finally presented this stone to Sam and his family, we took
some time to look up the website on the back of the stone.  I cannot
begin to describe the feelings that we all experienced after reading
Sam’s story, and the feeling of graciousness we had for our own
children, as well as the harsh reality of how quickly things can
change.  We are all deeply touched by your story and I feel that what
you are doing will have a profound effect on many people’s lives.  God
bless you and your family.
