Our Story
Meet The Lampleys
We’re the Lampley Family: Lewis, Sarah, Lewis Jr., London, and Leo. Our family has a deep love for people, connection, and Jesus. In the midst of our hardest season, after the loss of our son Legend, we chose to grieve in a way that would bring healing, hope, and comfort by giving back to others.
​
That’s when the calling to create LĪF: Legendary Impact Foundation was born. What began as a response to pain has grown into a movement of love in action, serving people, building community, and showing that small acts of kindness can spark lasting change.
​
We believe in creating spaces where people feel seen, valued, and supported. Through everyday generosity, we can build stronger, more compassionate communities that impact generations to come.
​Let’s live legendary together,
The Lampleys
Legend's Legacy
​
​
In September 2021, I was 38 weeks pregnant with our fourth son, Legend. Our family was beyond thrilled to welcome another Lampley boy into our home. But just as we were preparing to bring him into the world, everything changed.
​
Just a few days before I was scheduled to deliver, my water broke and something went terribly wrong. I was rushed to the ER in and out of consciousness. After the doctors’ life-saving efforts, we received the unthinkable news that our sweet baby boy no longer had a heartbeat.
​
We were speechless. We couldn’t understand how or why this happened. That day was the hardest of our lives. We lost Legend, and I nearly lost mine. The doctors told us that the way he was positioned in my womb saved me. That day, he wasn’t just my baby, he was my hero, a Legend without even knowing it.
​
After a few days in the hospital, on our ninth wedding anniversary, we drove home with an empty car seat to tell our three boys that their baby brother was in heaven. It was a pain no words could carry.
In the midst of grief, I still faced postpartum. I was producing milk but couldn’t bear to throw it away, so I began donating it to mothers in need and to research. That simple act turned pain into purpose and graced my grief with joy.
​
Over time, our family found healing through helping others. God’s strength has carried us and taught us to keep loving people, not in spite of what we lost but because of it. We’ll never forget the kindness shown to us by strangers
and friends, each one a reminder that love still lives here.
Now, through the Legendary Impact Foundation, we share that same hope with others. Because no matter what you’ve walked through, there is still light to be found. Our son, Legend Lampley, reminds us of that every day. Our little hero, our light in the darkness, and the heartbeat behind it all.
