Octopus Legacy, formerly known as Guardian Angel, was founded after Sam’s Mum died suddenly in a car accident. Her death was tough enough, but with no plan in place, it was overwhelming. There were endless forms, calls with lawyers, the stress of closing accounts, and worrying about if they’d got the funeral right. He knew he wasn’t alone.
Sam created Octopus Legacy in 2016 to give other families the support he wished he’d had, at the toughest time in his life by helping people put plans in place ahead of time and deal with loss today.
