There are no words that truly prepare you for a loss like this.

Sweet baby Hadley was the kind of light you don’t forget. She had the most beautiful, contagious smile—the kind that could fill a room and lift your spirits instantly. No matter the moment, she was always so happy, so full of life, and so deeply loved by everyone who knew her.

Erica and Casey, Hadley’s parents, are facing an unimaginable heartbreak right now. No parent is ever prepared to say goodbye to their child, and in the middle of their grief, they are also trying to stay strong for their surviving twin brother who still needs them.

In moments like this, the last thing any family should have to worry about is financial stress. We are coming together to raise funds to help take that burden off of Erica and Casey—whether it be for funeral expenses, time away from work, or simply giving them the space and time they need to grieve without added pressure.

If you are able to give, no matter the amount, it will mean more than words can express. And if you can’t, sharing this and keeping Erica, Casey, and their family in your thoughts and prayers means just as much.

Sweet baby Hadley’s life, though far too short, made a lasting impact. Her smile, her sweetness, and her light will never be forgotten.
