A Special Thank You to the People Who Helped Build This Scholarship Foundation.
A heartfelt thank you to honor the Lago Vista Booster Club for helping launch the memorial scholarship, while also recognizing the businesses, people, organizations, and friends whose generosity and volunteer hours helped turn that foundation into something meaningful and lasting.


Where It All Began
The Lago Vista Booster Club
We want to take a moment to extend a special thank you to the Lago Vista Booster Club. In our darkest hours, they found the clarity and strength to help launch our memorial fund. While we knew we didn’t want flowers or plants, we were certain we wanted to keep Whitney’s memory alive in our hearts and within our community.
Through conversations with Preston and Sabrina, the idea of giving back began to take shape. We quickly landed on the idea of partnering with the Booster Club to establish a recurring scholarship in Whitney’s honor. Though we had no idea where to start or how to execute anything, especially given the time-sensitive nature of it all. Heather Snyder, Kandice Thompson, and many others immediately sprang into action. They created a donation page, designed graphics, set up checking accounts, and did so much more, all while grappling with their own grief. Their selflessness during this difficult time means more to us than words can express.

We are forever grateful for the help and support they’ve given our family. The Lago Vista Booster Club truly represents the heart and soul of our community, operated by the best of the best.
