How To Help with Memorial Projects (many people have asked):

Following are some of the meaningful memorial projects in process for Samuel Thomas Hutchison, the fastest angel in heaven:

-      A plaque at Kate Sessions Park, Sam’s favorite place

-      Reading scholarships at Kate Sessions Elementary School

-      Upgraded basketball area at Kate Sessions Elementary

-      Continued pediatric cancer research

Support for these projects is being provided through MagicWater Foundation, a non-profit organization.  You can donate directly through www.magicwater.org – there are easy instructions on the site. Or, you can send a check made out to Magic Water to: 1787 Missouri Street, San Diego, CA 92109.  Sam’s family appreciates gifts of all sizes in Sam’s honor. They all add up to love.

Thank you!
Neil, Margot, Sam, Andy, and Charlie

    I made more than one scrapbook page – I made 10 actually. Hope that’s not too many. I had quiet a few photos of Sam from New Mexico trips. I put all the photos on a CD first so you will have them to view on your computer as well.
    See you on Saturday.
    Love, Nicole

    We were with you in spirit, guys. I keep picturing same leaving his “powers” with Andy, and I smile every time. He’s left his powers with everyone who knew him, and especially with everyone who loved him.
