The Scherer's Story
In September 2016 the Scherer family was apart of a tragic accident on I-75 near Brooksville, Florida.
A distracted driver who was going more than 100 mph slammed into the back of their SUV when they were at the tail end of a traffic jam.
Their 9-year-old son Logan was killed instantly, and the rest of the family suffered severe injuries.
Investigators later discovered that the driver was distracted by his phone that he never looked up causing the crash.
The Scherer Family took the tragedy and did something to try to stop future distracted driving accidents.
They established the Living for Logan Foundation, a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) non-profit organization on a quest to honor Logan and all others lost through distracted driving.
