Sarah Ewing was the 24-year-old woman who was killed in Kelley Square when she was pinned down by the rear wheels of a tractor trailer on Thursday night. Her family had been going through a tough time before this tragic incident transpired. Her brother’s father passed away last year, which was not easy on the family emotionally or financially.
Although Sarah was a Hudson resident, from what I have been told she was a Worcester regular, and deserves support from the Worcester community. Quite frankly, if she was hanging out at the Hotel Vernon, she sounds like she was a pretty cool girl. There’s no way to make sense of such a tragedy, but the Turtleboy community is large enough, kind enough, and caring enough to help this family out by offsetting some of the costs for the funeral.
We have set the goal amount for $1,000, because I have no idea what to expect. But in December when the Toys for Tots charity was robbed outside of the Lucky Dog cafe, Turtle Riders responded in force by donating over $2,000 and donating over 400 toys. I was blown away by the generosity. Some people have criticized the Turtleboy community for having a lack of compassion and empathy. Show them how wrong they are.
Here’s the link to her GoFundMe page. Give what you can. Ride on.

Over $4,000.
Well done people.
Is there a timeline of when the family is go receive the money?
*to
What a fucking riot listen to all of you Turtlebots whine with indignance and wail for respect. The entire premise of this blog, day in and day out, revolves around disrespecting people, and you all participate with full-throated glee. A scumbag doesn’t become a hero by donating a few dollars in the interest of upping his ad revenue. Let’s face he, he didn’t hesitate to still begin and end this blog entry with his self-promoting call to advertisers. He couldn’t put it away for even on post. Tells you all you need to know. Respect? Go pound sand.
You really can’t stand the fact of how much was raised and how much easier a difficult, life shattering event was made for the family, you go to bed this bitter every day?
A few dollars. Haha
Over $4,000 now. Amazing.
Yawn
BOO HOO you’re having trouble coming up with a negative spin on this so now you try to attack the readers, these are the same people donating to the Family. Maybe if your idols JiveClive and OldBalls did something for the community they might get a little praise to, but lets face facts, that will never happen….. we all know that they are both racist pricks. They would never do anything to help the common person unless they are of black priviledge.
Sorry, I just don’t believe your hero A*i*d*a*n has purly altruistic motives. He has proven time and time again to be a petty and vindictive person. Regardless of his true intentions, this is still a terrible tragedy and my thoughts are with the young lady’s family.
Not that it matters what you think, but this wasn’t his idea at all. This is the result of a group of private messages among several Turtle riders and Turtleboy writers. Now THIS is a community, Carlo, unlike the “Communities United Collective.”
So, you donated despite your disagreement with the individual in question, yes?
That’s really none of your business.
What I expected.
And yes, I did.
Thats because you’re a racist prick. You’re jealous that Turtle Boy Sports has done something nice that he is getting praised for. When was the last time JiveClive or OldBalls did something for a family in need. Besides letting the cat play with their balls. Yea i’ll save you the time of looking it up. IT’S NEVER.
Imagine that, racism isnt the headline fo the day so here comes the race baitor car full of hate to twist everything into a racial issue. Hey Old Balls, you arent fooling anyone and nobody cares about you or your racist blogs as proven by the WooMag Best of Worc. You didnt even get 2nd place loser. Go back to white washed Sutton.
I saw this incident happen and so did Sarahs brother and a dozen of his friends. Gruesome. fuck anyone questioning this fund. it was a freak accident and i highly doubt any of you have had funeral funds readily available, nevermind for a 24 year old. lol at this being about race. Worcesters finest objecting to a CHARITY FOR AN ACCIDENT VICTIM. stay classy wuu
They really can’t just see this is a time to help. Someone’s life taken in a complete freak accident. Not a illegal life choice. They appear to believe deep down in what they posted, I see little hope for them. What have they done in the last day that has been so positive? Go on, you tools. Don’t respond just dislike my comment. You have nothing.
Over $3,000 in less than 48 hours. That’s all you need to show them.
Turtleboy Spurts , Skeptic and Shervin, have some decency, a girl died in a freak accident that was not a drug deal gone wrong or an attempt at an officer’s weapon, in a manner which no person should pass. The BLM and occupy people preach not talking to the 50, maybe that logic should be applied in other social situations. Seriously you guys are one protest at a funeral away from being WBC craptastic.
Looks like the riders have come through so far! So proud of this group!
This is Sarah’s older brother. I just wanted to leave a quick comment thanking Turtle Boy Sports and all the kind souls who have shown love and support. We are a working-class family of modest means so the generosity of all of you who’ve made donations towards my sister’s final expenses has moved us all to tears. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you.
God bless you and your family.
I’m sure everyone here wished they could do more and take your pain away. God bless.
Sorry for your loss.
Look in the face of tragedy and do something good. Thank you, Turtleboy, for doing the right thing. Look in the face of something good and find fault. That’s fine. It’s who you are I guess. It is what it is I guess. Maybe you’re cynical because you’re miserable? She’s beautiful, inside and out, because she’s not miserable, and not cynical. And now she’s dead; due to a freak accident. Find it in you to do something nice today. You owe it to yourself.
Poor sporks. Always second fiddle to Turtleboy…make that 1,000th fiddle. Your envy is showing, miserable one.
How beautiful she was has nothing to do with it. STFU! Anyone hit with a tragedy like this TB would help and has helped! If you’re here just to run your mouth, then take a hike!!! This isn’t the place!!!
So let’s just say it wasn’t a “beautiful” 24-year old woman with a full set of teeth who died in this unfortunate tragedy? …would we still be asked to donate?
Or *shudder*, a young woman of color?
Seems you two pretty well understand the shallowness of this publisher, and the cynical ploy to appear respectable that this is.
Did you donate?
It’s very well going to approach or surpass $2,000 in 24 hours.
I’m sure the earlier push to get funds for Julianna was just for attention too?

Tell you what, post a go fund me over at sporks and see what you can raise from the traffic.
sounds to me like you two are both a couple of racist hippies. the reason that turtle boy wants to help is because it was a senseless accident. She didn’t put herself in a position that she could be killed like a drug dealer. It was just a freak accident, so Turtle boy as well as the followers would like to help with the cost of the funeral. Not for attention but because it’s the right thing to do in these type of cases.
A truly miserable person you are.
Can’t separate a tragic situation from your own bias.
Why am I not surprised to find a couple dick shitters in here trying to play the race card? Was it Clive or Old Balls who put you up to this?
You fucking went there, you piece of shit! Wow…sleep well tonight douchebag.
Such a tragedy for SUCH a beautiful girl but it really doesn’t matter that she was such a pretty woman. This would suck with anyone involved. Peace and prayers to Sarah and her family. From the heart. With love, Bob.
Nothing like stepping up and putting a number on it. Either TB donates a grand plus or he doesn’t. I bet he does. I’m in TB!
