why would a killdeer parent bird abandon her nest with eggs in it?

Thanks. We had 3 Killdeer on the yard 2 weeks ago. Then a pair of crows moved in and we have hardly seen the Killdeer since. She had gotten accustomed to us working around her nest. I chased the stupid crows away from her nest once and she came back, but the next day with 3 eggs in the nest all 3 adults were gone. Hail storm last night destroyed 2 of the eggs, we brought the 3rd into the house & I put it in a box with tissue, not to sure what else to do with it at this point.
