The date of the fundraiser holds added significance, taking place just days before what would have been his birthday on April 23.

Founded by his mother, Cheryl Rex, the Rancho Cucamonga based Legends Live Forever Foundation is dedicated to ensuring that the stories of fallen heroes are never forgotten. Through events, outreach, and memorial efforts, the organization seeks to keep their legacies alive within the communities they served and beyond.

"Dylan lived his life with purpose, commitment, and heart," said Cheryl Rex, Founder of Legends Live Forever Foundation. "This event is not only about honoring him, but about bringing people together to remember all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. Seeing the community come together in his name means more than words can express."

The partnership with Old Stump Brewing Co. reflects a shared commitment to community and remembrance. The brewery has created "Sunset Legend" specifically for this occasion, offering attendees a unique way to participate in the tribute.

Community members, supporters, and local businesses are encouraged to attend, enjoy the evening, and contribute to a cause rooted in remembrance, respect, and unity. The event is open to the public.
