Samanth Cobert October 10, 1989 - March 07, 2008 All Leukemia This letter was written by Samantha's coach. Even though Samantha graduated the previous year she stayed in contact with her high school and they with her. Is with great sadness that I send this message. Sam Cobert passed away yesterday evening after a rough battle with a lung infection. She was surrounded by friends and family and went very peacefully. I know she appreciated all of the thoughts and prayers from the EHS family. Sammy was a fighter and tried to overcome this obstacle the same way she overcame so many obstacles in her short 18 years, but her body just wouldn't cooperate with her will. I will always remember Samantha for her strong spirit and kind heart. Sam has taught me a lot in the short time I have known her but the most impressive lesson came last lacrosse season. Sam was diagnosed with leukemia exactly one year earlier and after making it through tryouts spent her junior lacrosse season watching game tapes from a hospital bed, the entire time telling me she would be out next year. After spending the summer struggling through treatments and sickness and making up a class so that she could stay on track for graduation she came back to school for her senior year. No one was going to tell her she was going to miss out on anything. Although she was not well enough to play field hockey that year she did manage for the team. All year she fought with the doctors and physical therapists pushing herself to be ready for lacrosse. Sure enough spring rolled around and there she was, on my field with a release form from her doctors. As our wonderful, supportive, caring students of EHS rallied around her she got stronger every day. The lesson I have learned from Samantha is that I can overcome any obstacle and to always fight for the best things in life. This is what I will take to my team on Monday and something I will want to share with all of you. I know that I speak for Kelly also when I say thank you all for the kind words and concerns. As soon as we know specifics on the services we will let all of you know. Jon-Michael Joseph Muskera June 16, 2007 - February 20, 2008 AT/RT After 6 surgeries and 12 procedures, our son lost his fight with the cowardly, unforgiving cancer known as atypical teratoid rhabdoid tumor. Even through 15 weeks of very intense chemotherapy, Jon always managed a crooked 'Elvis' grin to all those he saw. The initial tumor had paralyzed his right side of his face and gave him an adorable smile that could melt any heart. Jon Michael touched thousands of people in his 8 months here on this earth and gave his mother and I such great joy. He was able to experience his first Thanksgiving, his first snow fall, and a wonderful Christmas to which he loved looking at his Christmas tree. Jon-Michael will be forever remembered by his awesome strength and courage, and the void left in our hearts will last just as long. Jon-Michael...we love you and miss you so much. Love, Mom and Dad. Joshua Oberhansli January 06, 2006 - January 09, 2008 Embryonal Rhabdomyosarcoma Amelia September 16, 1989 - December 23, 2007 Osteogenic Sarcoma Mo I miss you so much. Relay for Life was not the same this year without you. You are such an inspiring person, even before your diagnosis. I wish you could have graduated with us. I wish we could have gone off to college together, I wish we cold have taken that road trip. I wish so many things. You had such life in you Amelia. I think that if I ever have a daughter I will name her after you. Know that Megan, Danielle and I love you so much. We'll live the life that was cut short for you, save us a spot in heaven so we can be next to you okay? I love and miss you with all my heart. Allison Kay Faulks September 06, 2006 - November 17, 2007 Rhabdoid Tumor-spine/brain Allison is our Guardian Angel! She was only here with us for 14 months and in just that little bit of time she was able to change so many lives! She is so perfect and I miss her so much. It is so hard going day by day not seeing that perfect face, smiling from ear to ear anymore. It eases my heart to know that she is an Angel now and that she is no longer in any pain. You know God has proven to all of us on this memorial page that GOD ONLY TAKES THE BEST! Nina Elly Hermes May 24, 1999 - November 15, 2007 rhabdomyosarcoma Nina is our family's angel. We miss her terribly but like to think of her as the brilliant red in a beautiful rainbow. We will love and remember her always.

Brandon Elam March 18, 1991 - October 02, 2007 Medullablastoma After 3 yrs of fighting this beast Brandon was taken from us on 10-02-08. He was such a fighter and never gave up. We all thought god was going to give us a miracle, but that is not what happened. Brandon we all miss your bright eyes and big smile. I have just not laughed the same since you have been gone. I can't wait until we are together again and I can hold you, kiss you and just talk to you. We love you very much. Please come visit us and keep us safe.
