A local family is turning their tragedy into the opportunity to put a smile on the face of children who need it most. After losing their daughter Samantha in December, parents Kevin and Betty Cox, didn’t know what to do with their daughter’s stuffed animals, until they learned about a program through Kentucky State Police.
As part of their mission, Samantha’s Hugs will be taking new or gently used stuffed animals tomorrow in the J.C. Penny parking lot at Towne Mall from 1-3 p.m.
