The Carolina Memorial Sanctuary has committed to covering funeral costs for the family, though a GoFundMe campaign has been established in order to raise funds to honor the lives of Alison, Knox, Felix, and Lucas and support those impacted by the storm.
Making things all the more heartbreaking, Alison and Knox are said to have been planning to wed one another on November 9.
According to the latest reports, more than 230 people have been found dead in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, as officials in the western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee areas continue to recover bodies almost two weeks after the storm hit.
Rest in peace to this poor family, and to all those who have lost their lives in the recent storms.
