About 200 people showed up and took part in a 5k and one-mile walk to help raise money for the DRW Foundation, which is set to give out scholarships to students at Firelands High School in honor of Ryan.

Back on Sept. 4, Ryan Walker, a junior at Bowling Green University and alumnus of Firelands High School, along with three longtime friends, were headed back to campus after a Guardians game, bowling and ice cream. They were about 20 minutes from campus when the Ohio State Highway Patrol said a driver tried to pass several cars on the two-lane U.S. 6.

Police said that driver hit the car head-on that the college kids were in, killing Ryan. Ryan was in the backseat passenger seat. Additionally, troopers said that same driver had previously hit two other cars that same evening.However, for this Thanksgiving, Ryan Walker's family and friends channeled their grief into good, as part of a fundraising 5k.
