My name is Samantha Hughes, and I created this fundraiser for my aunt, Showna, and her family following her passing on September 7, 2026. Showna was my aunt and someone I loved deeply. Our family has been devastated by this sudden loss, and I started this fundraiser to help ease some of the financial burden on the family during an already heartbreaking time.
I am currently listed as the recipient of the fundraiser because I organized the fundraiser on behalf of our family. The funds raised are intended for Showna’s immediate family, primarily her husband, my uncle, and her son. I am trying to have the funds released so they can be provided directly to my uncle to help with the expenses surrounding Showna’s passing and the financial responsibilities he is facing as he adjusts to life without his wife.
Donations have also helped our family with funeral-related needs such as flowers, memorial decorations, ribbons, and other items used to honor Showna and celebrate her life. Any remaining funds are intended to go to her husband and son to help them with expenses and support them during this difficult transition.
Showna meant so much to so many people, and our family is incredibly grateful for every person who has donated, shared the fundraiser, prayed for us, or supported us in any way. Every contribution has been given with the intention of helping Showna’s family through this loss and making sure she was honored with the love she deserved.
Thank you for helping us support Showna’s husband and son as they navigate the days ahead without her.
