The outpouring of love and support for the Shanks family has allowed us to reach our initial goal in less than 48 hours. We have learned the financial need is greater than originally anticipated. Donations are still being accepted.

Thank you to all who have given to support Courtney, Tyler, Peyton and Madilynne. Troy's death has left a void that's impossible to fill.
