Lainey Foral Death: It is with the deepest sorrow and heavy hearts that we mourn the tragic passing of Lainey Foral, a member of the SkyHawk Class of 2026, who lost her life far too soon in a heartbreaking accident over the weekend. Her loss has sent shockwaves through her family, friends, teammates, teachers, and the entire community—leaving behind a silence that words can hardly fill.
Tonight, we gather in prayer and remembrance at Moylan Field at 8:45 p.m. to recite the rosary and honor a beautiful soul taken from us too early. We come not just with grief in our hearts, but with gratitude—for the light Lainey brought into this world, and for the time, however brief, that we were blessed to share with her.
Lainey was so much more than a name on a roster or a face in the crowd. She was full of energy, determination, kindness, and spirit. She was someone you remembered after the first hello—a young woman with a contagious smile, an encouraging word for anyone who needed it, and a fire in her heart for everything she did. Whether in the classroom, on the field, or just in everyday moments, Lainey made an impact.

To those who knew her best—her family, her closest friends, her teammates—Lainey was a source of joy and strength. She had a fierce spirit and an incredibly compassionate heart. She showed up, every time, whether it was to support a friend, give her all in practice, or help someone who needed a hand. She didn’t do it for recognition—she did it because that’s who she was. That’s how she loved.
As a proud SkyHawk, Lainey carried herself with grit and grace. She embraced challenges with courage and never gave less than her best. Her coaches and teammates will remember not just her talent, but her drive—her voice in the huddle, her laughter after a tough day, her perseverance in the face of adversity. She led by example, not by spotlight. She was the heart of the team in ways that stats could never capture.
But beyond sports and school, Lainey was a daughter, a sister, a friend, and a light in the lives of so many. She loved deeply. She dreamed big. She made people feel like they belonged, like they mattered. Whether it was through a note of encouragement, a late-night conversation, or a shared look during a moment of triumph or doubt—Lainey had a way of making others feel seen.
That’s the kind of loss we’re facing. The loss of not only a promising future, but a remarkable presence. A friend who would have stood by us through life’s next chapters. A young woman who had so much to offer this world. And while we mourn all that she didn’t get to do, we also celebrate everything she did. Because Lainey, even in her short time, lived with purpose, with heart, and with impact.
To Lainey’s family—please know that you are not alone in your grief. This community grieves with you. We hold you close in our prayers, and we carry Lainey’s memory with us every day. No words will ever be enough to ease your pain, but may you find comfort in the love that surrounds you, in the stories people share, and in the enduring light your daughter brought into this world.
To Lainey’s friends—lean on one another. Grieve together. Talk about her. Laugh about the memories. Cry when you need to. Be there for each other, just as Lainey would have been there for you. Her absence will be felt in a thousand different ways, but her spirit can live on in the way you support each other, the way you carry forward the kindness and strength she showed every day.
To the SkyHawk family—let us hold tighter to one another. Let this tragedy remind us how precious life is, and how much we need each other. Let us live in a way that honors Lainey: with passion, with courage, with love.
At times like this, we often ask “why?”—why someone so young, so full of promise, could be taken so suddenly. There’s no simple answer. Grief has no rules, no logic. But what we do know is this: Lainey’s life mattered. She mattered to all of us. And that love will never fade.
As we gather tonight at Moylan Field to pray the rosary, let us not only mourn, but also reflect. Let us feel the weight of this loss, and the beauty of a life that burned so brightly. Let us find peace in prayer, unity in community, and strength in one another.
In the days and weeks to come, Lainey’s name will echo in our hearts. Her locker, her desk, her place in our lives will feel achingly empty. But her spirit—her laughter, her determination, her kindness—will remain. It will guide us. It will challenge us to be better. It will remind us to live fully and love deeply.
Lainey Foral, your time on earth was short, but your impact was infinite. You showed us what it means to be a friend, a teammate, a daughter, and a light in the lives of others. We miss you. We love you. And we promise to carry you with us—on the field, in the classroom, in the quiet and loud moments of life.
Rest in peace, sweet Lainey. You will always be a SkyHawk.
You will always be remembered.
You will always be loved.
