It's been three months since 19-year-old Dallas Lowry was hit and killed while riding his bike to work, but his family said he is still making a difference in other people's lives. 

Dallas' former school, the Oklahoma School for the Deaf, is renaming an award to honor Dallas, and his family is starting a foundation in his name. His dad, Scott Lowry, said they are now living by the motto, live like Dallas did. 

Scott said he hears a story almost every day from different people about how his son Dallas impacted their life. 

"We didn't know how he was every day outside of home because he was the quiet deaf kid that didn't verbalize and say what he did,” Scott said. “And then afterwards it was just left and right and even yesterday, we were hearing about more connections he made we had no clue about."

Scott said Dallas had the biggest heart and was full of compassion, just a few months ago he won the fighting heart award from the Oklahoma School for the Deaf. 

For the next 15 years, each winner of the award will get $1,000 from funds raised for Dallas' family after the accident. 

The award will also have a new name, The Dallas Lowry Fighting Heart Award. 

"The student that receives it, they take time to sit down with them and tell them who Dallas was, and they said they will continue doing that going forward," Scott said. 

His family is starting the Dallas Lowry Foundation, a nonprofit that will provide family support to veterans, first responders, as well as people who are deaf and hard of hearing. 

Scott said they've also gotten to know the woman accused of hitting Dallas.

"She was just in a spot that she got involved with, she didn't choose that, and I have nothing against her, she is the sweetest little girl you could ever meet," he said. 

He said his family relies on each other for strength, and he knows Dallas wouldn't want them to be mad. 

"I wasn't there, mom wasn't there, it was him and her that were involved in that, they know what happened and I know with what happened, he's not going to be mad at her, he knows she didn't do it on purpose," he said. 

The Oklahoma School for the Deaf also asked Scott to be on its board of directors, so he will be able to serve the students and staff at the school where his son had such an impact.
