Saying “See you later” to Lucas and Billy

Donation protected
My name’s Ashley and I’ve been friends with Samantha since we were teenagers. She is one of my best friends and one of the most selfless and kindest souls on this earth. I’ve been alongside Sam throughout many chapters of our lives but this by far, is the hardest and most unexpected of them all.
 
On the morning of Sunday, April 24th Sam witnessed her 9 year old son and 35 year old husband lose their lives due to a distracted driver on the side of i95 in Jacksonville, Florida. Sam was untouched yet her life has been broken beyond belief.
 
Lucas and Billy were inseparable here on earth, two peas in a pod-so I guess God saw it fit to bring them home together, hand in hand.
Billy hung the moon in Lucas’ eyes and vice versa but the both of them were what made Samantha’s world go round.
Her little family is everything to her. 

Billy stepped into their lives 5 years ago and we knew instantly he was there to stay. He was old school, a mans man, the ultimate provider/protector and the BEST dad aka Big Daddy to Lucas and his big brother, Ethan. It was effortless, it came so naturally to him-there was never any questions or any other motives behind it. He was a genuinely good human being to his core and he instilled those same values into Lucas.
 When he was here to be one of the tiny groomsman in our wedding, (he was so proud to walk his momma down) he had to make sure to call his Big Daddy every night to tell him goodnight and that he loved him.
They were literally one another’s “person”
-soul mate best friends, as I like to say. 
Their bond was unmatched. 

We will miss them both so freaking much.
 
 
We have no idea where to go from here but we would just like to be able to take at least some of the financial burden off of her shoulders, as Billy was the sole provider & she should be given adequate time grieve and process this in her own time without the weight of the world crashing down on her more than it already has.
If you cannot donate please find it in your heart to share.
God Bless Y’all
