Duk Shin

Hello my name is a Colleen Rilling and I have set up this Go Fund Me Account as a way for all of us to come together and do all we can to help Ashley, Mason and Colton at this very difficult time.

On March 27, 2024, while on vacation with his family, Duk demonstrated extraordinary courage and selflessness when he saw a child in distress in the water. As you would expect of Duk, he did not hesitate for a moment to go in to attempt to save this child that was drowning. Tragically, Duk lost his life while trying to save someone else's child. He leaves behind a grieving wife, and two young boys ages 7 and 9 who will forever miss their loving husband and father. Their loss is immeasurable and there are no words that can ease their sorrow.

As a community, we want to rally around Duk's family during this unimaginably difficult time.

The family has expressed that they would be most appreciative of any donations made go towards the future educational expenses for his boys, Mason and Colton. Education was so important to Duk and we know this is what he would appreciate the most for his beloved sons.

Duk exemplified bravery and selflessness, a true Hero in every sense! Now let's be a Hero to his family during this time.
