Support Lyra&Auden after the loss of their mother Amy Samson

Note - scroll to the end for updates

I cannot believe that I am going to write this - my dear friend Amy Samson died in a car crash on her way to work at North Eugene High School on October 15th.

Amy was so much to so many. She was my friend and a dear friend to countless more. She was an amazing teacher. She was the rock of her family - a loving sister and daughter, and above all Amy was a fiercely loving mother to Lyra and Auden.

Amy meant so much to our community. So many have asked how they can help. The needs will be immense and ongoing but the very first step is to help Lyra and Auden come home from college so they can be surrounded by their family and friends.

Your donations are most appreciated and will ease the burden on the family as they cope with this horrific tragedy.

Memorial planning is ongoing and updates will be posted here.

When donating, please pay close attention to the "tip" slider button. It defaults to adding a 17% fee to your donation, but you can change this to zero.

Please be assured that I have the full support and permission of the family to post this. All donations will go directly to Lyra and Auden.
