Help Triston Smith's Family After Tragic Loss
Donation protected
On September 6, 2024, Triston Smith's live was taken tragically by a speeding drunk driver, that crashed into his car, causing him to hit a telephone pole. It was not an accident, there was nothing accidental about someone choosing to drive while under the influence. Triston did not deserve to have his life ended, the way it did. He was minutes away from his home.
Triston was an amazing father, son, uncle, brother, neighbor, friend, whose life was taken far too soon. He graduated from Spanaway Lake High School, where he was a student athlete, then started working on a career as a plumber. He was destined for success. He loved his family and enjoyed cars, especially Hondas. Triston was kind, humble and very respectful. He was there for anyone that needed him and was an active member in his church.
Triston had full custody of his 4 yr old daughter Izzy. She just started pre kindergarten in August. She was the highlight of his life. She loves her daddy. I remember one day after church, I told her that her dress was beautiful and she looked at me with the biggest smile and said " I know, my Daddy bought it for me, I love him and he loves me". I will never forget the smile Triston had on his face.
This GOFUNDME, is to help support his parents to establish guardianship of his 4 yr old daughter, and help alleviate the burden of Tristons unexpected funeral expenses. Every donation, no matter how small will bring his parents closer to securing a safe and loving home for their grand-daughter. Please lift this family up in your prayers for them to have strength and grace to get through this.
