Rowan's Memorial Park

On Monday, September 21, Rowan Brandon Sweeney was taken away from this Earth in a pure act of evilness. He was 4 years old, turning 5 in just one short week. Rowan was loved by so many, and he returned that love ten-fold. His family would love to honor Rowan in a way of giving back and making others happy, as that's what Rowan would want. He wanted nothing else but to please his parents and make his family smile. This sweet, innocent boy has touched lives and brought a community together. 


We want to honor his memory by creating a park for the community in his name. Rowan loved the whole idea of parks and playgrounds. He would want nothing other than a safe place that can bring love and enjoyment together. It would mean everything to Rowan if he could be responsible for others' happiness. The funds raised here on this gofundme page will be used to create this park in his memory. We hope that this place will be a source of comfort to Rowan’s family and friends, the entire community, and to all who have lost loved ones to acts of senseless violence, as well as a reminder to all of the value of family.


If you are able to contribute to our cause in any way we offer our most sincere thank you in advance. The world has lost a bright and joyous little boy. We hope to share his light with the world through this project of healing. #RememberingRowan
