A Life for Aria

On Saturday, April 30th, Aria's dad, Shawn, was senselessly and tragically shot and killed in a restaurant parking lot. While the rest of us try to navigate our grief, Aria, just six years old, is left without her hero.

Aria was Shawn's world. He spent every day showing her just how much she meant to him. Their adventures were neverending, always outdoors, always exploring. Aria wanted to do everything just like her daddy. She was his princess, daddy's little "babygirl."

Like all parents, Shawn had the biggest hopes, dreams, and plans for his daughter. It is a tragedy that someone took that opportunity away from Aria and Shawn.

Please help us make Shawn's dreams for Aria come true. All funds raised will be used for the direct support of Aria, including any immediate needs (from funeral expenses to new clothes and shoes for a growing six-year-old) and the development of a college savings fund.

Thank you for helping us create a life for Aria on Shawn's behalf!
