Phoenix, AZ – The family and friends of Ethan Manning are mourning his loss and have launched a fundraiser to help cover his final expenses. Ethan Manning, born on January 8, 1991, passed away on August 12, 2024. He is currently in Phoenix, Arizona, but his loved ones are working to bring him closer to his family for his final rest.
Shannon Seaton, a close family member, has organized a GoFundMe campaign titled "Support Ethan Manning’s Final Journey." The fundraiser aims to raise $15,000 to cover the costs of bringing Ethan home and other related expenses.
"We are currently accepting donations for Ethan’s final journey," Shannon Seaton shared on Facebook, along with payment details for Zelle and Cash App. "At this time, we are still trying to set up meetings for him. Once we get a location, we will update and inform everyone."
The outpouring of support on social media highlights the impact Ethan had on his community. One Facebook user, Spencer Tom, asked, "What was his clan?" To which Shannon Seaton replied with a list of his clan affiliations, indicating the deep cultural connections Ethan held.
As the family navigates this difficult time, they are grateful for any support to help honor Ethan’s memory and ensure he is laid to rest near his loved ones. The community’s response, including donations and kind words, is a testament to the strong bonds Ethan built during his life.
