Samaria was the youngest of four and filled with a love for life. The overflow of that love was her great desire to help and serve others.

Named from a story told in the Bible by Jesus about loving your neighbor, Samaria modeled that love for others in her life for both friends and strangers. Bright, charming, easy-going, with a personality like none other, always quick with a joke and an infectious smile, Samaria always found time to invest in and serve others.

19-year-old Samaria was called home to be with Jesus on April 15, 2021, in the Fed Ex mass shooting. Samaria’s Legacy has been established to honor her memory. 


Help Us Honor Her Memory

“No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

— Romans 8:37-39 ESV, Samarias' Favorite Verse
