I lost my sister yesterday. She died peacefully in her sleep, at home, at just 38 years old. She leaves behind a 5 year old daughter, Mia, now in the care of my Mom, and me and the rest of Samantha’s siblings. She was my younger sister, fierce, determined and absolutely without fear when it came to life. All the money raised will be used towards covering her funeral expenses, with anything leftover going to taking care of Mia.

UPDATE

I want to thank everyone that has donated to help Samantha’s family with the funeral expenses. They have helped a great deal.

There will be a viewing on Monday May 15th 2023 from 4-7pm at Chapel of the Chimes at 32992 Mission Blvd in Hayward. Service will be the next day at the same place, Tuesday May 16th at 12pm to 1:30pm.

Thank you. And we would be honored if you join us in saying goodbye to my sister.

UPDATE 5.18.23

I would like to thank everyone for their generous donations, their kind words and their efforts on my family’s behalf in getting through this difficult time. My sister was laid to rest by cremation 5.17.23 and her ashes will be interred with our Dad at Chapel of the Chimes. As of now, I am closing this GoFund as our funeral expenses have been attended to and anything leftover has been given to my Mom to help with any expenses for taking care of Mia. Thank you to everyone again, and we are forever grateful to everyone’s support and kindness.
