Kassandra Boswell with the Josephine Boswell Foundation

Kassandra Boswell with the Josephine Boswell Foundation

Kassandra Boswell/Josephine Boswell Foundation

Josephine Boswell was born on April 12th, 2021 at 10lbs 15 oz. She suddenly passed away in her sleep from unknown causes on the evening of July 13th, 2023 at around 8pm. Her life was filled with love, excitement, wonder and support from her community. Throughout her short life she spent her days making friends, discovering the world, bonding with her teachers and fully embracing the “tyrant” title her mom gave her when she was a colicky baby. She was starting to understand spelling and math, her full name when written out as well as being able to recite her address around her 2nd birthday.

In essence, she was a force to be reckoned with. She was interesting, kind, curious, determined, funny, intelligent, compassionate and unapologetically herself. Her parents are incredibly proud of the person she was and who she was turning into. The result of the community that surrounded her; including her family, neighbors, friends and caregivers at her daycare.

The lack of apparent cause of death is what prompted the family to reach out to The SUDC Foundation (Sudden Unexplained Death in Childhood) to get information and support during the devastating time following her passing. The SUDC Foundation has provided significant support and information in the wake of this loss. It’s through these experiences that the Boswells created the JB Foundation in order to support them and their mission. The Josephine Boswell Foundation is here to raise scholarship funds and research funds to empower the SUDC Foundation, but their community as well!
