On Thanksgiving night, Shannon Ewing experienced every parent’s worst nightmare—she lost her beloved 17-year-old son, David, in a tragic car accident. David was a kind, gentle soul with a heart full of goodness. He was a senior at Park Vista High School in Lake Worth, eagerly looking forward to graduation and all the possibilities ahead. He loved the outdoors, working hard, laughing with his friends, and spending time with the people who meant everything to him—his brother and cousins Joseph, Connor, and Sam. Whether he was hunting, fishing, or fiercely negotiating a game of Monopoly like the money was real, David brought joy, humor, and warmth to everyone around him. His life was full of promise, and he still had so much living left to do.

As Shannon faces this unimaginable grief, we are coming together to support her expenses and to ease the heavy financial burdens no mother should ever have to carry alone. If you feel moved to help, any donation—big or small—will make a meaningful difference and will honor David’s memory in the most heartfelt way.
