We will never forget this.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Today our familys start filtering in and we have to help them say goodbye to Sam. I&#8217;m looking forward to seeing everyone.. I also know it&#8217;s goign to be pretty hard. <br \/>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In the midst of our sorrow.. we&#8217;re noticing some cool stuff. We feel Sam everywhere. I want to write down two incidents just to capture them. <\/p>\n<p>&#8211; One night while we were still in Florida, Max was walking between the respite house and the hospital. He suddenly felt Sam&#8217;s presence very strongly. He stopped and looked around and of course saw nothing. He asked Sam for a sign that it was him. At that instant, the street light across the street exploded&#8230; not dimmed, not went out, exploded with sparks&#8230;..<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Yesterday we all went to a very nice and very sad assembly at Sam&#8217;s school. The entire student body was in the gym to share memories and music for Sam. They have a fancy PA system that they use for events like this&#8230; about 5 min into the one hour program the PA just flipped out&#8230; the mike stopped working and there was a load noise in the background. After a few attempts of whacking the mike the hum stopped and the mike worked again.. until someone tried to speak&#8230; then it happened again. Once again.. they whacked the mike.. it started working.. until they tried to use it again.&nbsp;&nbsp; They had to bring in a back up.&nbsp;&nbsp; Max got up and told the family electrical disturbances story. (electical devices always freak out when I&#8217;m agitated.. I once blacked out Richmond after a minor traffic accident freaked me out) When Diane and I got up to speak.. I ended my piece with a statement of knowing that Sam was all around us. At that instant there was a huge BANG in the big PA system&#8230;. It was very cool<\/p>\n<p>We feel you Sam !
