Riley's Education Fund in Tim's Honor

The Root Family is raising money for an education fund on behalf of Riley Ress Root in honor of her dad, Tim Root. On March 21, 2025, Riley shockingly lost her father after a short battle with leukemia. At only 6 years old, Riley did not get nearly enough time with her dad in her life. From the moment she was born, Tim’s focus was on what he could do to make her life better.

Knowing that she will be provided for in her future, with education options open to her, would mean the world to Tim.
