Help Support The Family of James Lawitz

James was tragically shot and killed on his own property September 15, 2024. He was only 30 years old with so much life ahead of him. He was a beloved son, brother and partner, an admired coach, trainer and teammate, and a devoted friend and partner. He is survived by his lifelong partner Shannon, three dogs, cats and chickens. As an avid pet lover, James spent his days caring for his home and animals, and building a prosperous life with Shannon.

If you can spare some help to the family to cover funeral and living costs, it would be greatly appreciated. Our hope is to help provide support to his family and loved ones in this tremendous time of need and unexpected devastation. Any amount will go a long way and we thank you in advance for your generosity during this tragedy.

We want the family to know how loved James is and the impact he left on all those he crossed paths with.

We will update this as we learn more about a celebration of life for James.

Thank you.

This fundraiser is intended to raise money for Shannon Rubin. She’s a great friend of mine and we want to help her during this time of need and unexpected devastation. All donations will be going directly to Shannon to help pay for funeral and living costs in light of this tragic incident.

Thank you.
