After losing our daughter Madeline in 2022 to the effects of cancer treatment, we created Raising Daisies to offer the kind of long-term support we needed—and couldn’t find. Our hope is simple: that no grieving parent feels forgotten, and no family has to walk through loss alone.

We are longtime friends of Sean and Lilliana who’ve walked beside them through unimaginable loss—and now stand beside them in building this mission. As board members, we’re committed to honoring Madeline’s memory by ensuring other families feel supported, seen, and surrounded in the aftermath of grief.

As a board member of Raising Daisies, I’m honored to support families navigating the difficult journey of losing a loved one to cancer. I was inspired to join this mission through my friend and mentor, Sean Randall, who founded Raising Daisies after the loss of his young daughter to treatment. Witnessing how support often fades after the first year of loss, Sean and Lilliana created this foundation to ensure that families continue to receive resources and care beyond that 366-day mark.
