On Sunday night, the Volusia County Dive Team recovered the body of 4-year-old Waylon Childs, of Ormond Beach, hours after he'd been reported missing from Central Park on Fleming Avenue.

A few fundraisers have been organized by those close to the family. 

"Our world has been shattered, and we are struggling to come to terms with the loss of our sweet boy, whose presence in our lives brought us so much love," parents Kristin Scarborough and Scott Childs wrote in a GoFundMe page. "Waylon had an incredible energy that filled every room he entered. He was always on the move, full of life and wonder, constantly exploring the world with bright eyes and a boundless curiosity. He was a little soul full of innocence and sweet affection, and his light will forever shine in our hearts."
