We are profoundly thankful to all the incredible individuals who have extended their support to our family. Sam was a beloved son, partner, brother, bro (friend) and a treasured member of our community, always greeting others with a smile and a helping hand. His kindness had a lasting impact on everyone he encountered, and he was always there to listen to a friend in need.

Currently, we are in discussions with Sam's close family and friends about how to honour his legacy. We plan to establish a foundation in his name, and while we are still determining the specifics, we will initially reach out to the schools Sam attended to offer our support, William Levick Primary and Dronfield Henry Fanshawe School.

Additionally, we will be supporting the Centrepoint homeless charity by sponsoring a room for a year, a cause that was very close to Sam’s heart. He believed in the vital importance of providing shelter and hope to those in need, and we want to continue his commitment to making a positive impact in the lives of others.

Moreover, Sam's friends from football will be organising a community event in his memory.

Instead of making donations to a charity in his name, we hope that you will join us in these efforts.

We are truly touched by the immense outpouring of love and support from everyone; it gives us the strength to pursue these initiatives. We are confident that Sam's legacy will continue to inspire and uplift lives, just as he did during his time with us.

Thank you for being part of this journey and for helping us honour Sam's memory in meaningful ways.

With love and gratitude,

Emma, David, Nicole, Charlotte, Ella, Jackie, Josh, Ellis and Ryan.
