Hello all, my name is Julia and I am Hope Riley’s best friend. As many of you have seen posted on Facebook… Hope lost her loving fiancée 12/15 very unexpectedly. He left behind Hope and two beautiful young baby girls, Sage and Lyra. With Lyra being just 2 months old and Hope still being on maternity leave from work, I cannot even imagine the heartache and pain she must be going through.

I have had so many people asking me what they can do to help her and her family out in this time of need. So I set up this GoFundMe. Hopefully we can give Hope one less thing to stress about so she can focus on her and her girls in this devastating time.
