It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our beloved Samantha Shauna Emma Williams who left us far too soon on Friday 7th March 2025 at the age of 40.

She leaves behind her greatest blessings, her 18-year-old twins who now face the heartbreak of moving forward without their mother.

Samantha was a force of nature, a loving mother, devoted daughter, cherished sister and an amazing friend to many. She fought tirelessly through unimaginable challenges but it’s the love and joy she gave to everyone around her that we will always remember.

Samantha was also a fighter. For 15 years, Samantha battled endometriosis, a condition that brought her chronic pain and led to three minor and three major surgeries, including a hysterectomy. In addition to that, she faced kidney failure in 2023 and heart failure in 2024. Through it all she remained strong, determined and still found joy in life, always living life to the fullest and making the most of every moment.

Samantha’s children were everything to her. As a single mother, she ensured that she poured all of her love, energy and wisdom into raising her twins. Despite all the pain she went through, she made sure they had everything they needed. Now, her children who are inspired by Samantha’s entrepreneurial spirit plan to continue her cocktail business 'What Da Punch' in her honour.

Samantha had a way of making everyone feel seen, heard and loved. Whether it was her infectious sense of humour, her quick wit or the way she could always make people laugh, she had an energy that lit up any room. She was the type of person who would do anything for the people she loved, always going above and beyond.

Samantha’s passing has left an irreplaceable void in the lives of her loved ones who are now tasked to navigate their new normal.

We’re asking for your support to ensure that her children receive the care and support they need during this incredibly difficult time and unexpected transition in their lives.

Your kind contributions will honour Samantha's life, going towards funeral expenses, continuing her legacy and easing financial strain on the twins. No donation is too small and every gesture of support is deeply appreciated.

We ask that you keep Samantha’s family in your thoughts and prayers and share this page with others.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity and love.

With love and gratitude,
