If all existence is not necessary, then they are not necessary to exist and possibly could not have existed. If things are not necessary, the question, is why do they exist?

Everything is possible.

A universe can have different laws, etc....

I believe if you think about the teleological argument, then it further confirms why there must a necessary being.

That is because everything requires an explanation of why it's here, and God being the necessary being is the only being that is an explanation of why he/it/her exists.

It's in fact intuitive whatever REALLY defines existence is that which must always have existed and cannot but exist wherever existence is found.

Everything else get's it's existence and creation and definition from it.

Existence is Existence. It necessarily must exist. That is a simple proof that the Necessary being is the REAL existence by which all things exist.

God is necessary as well for morality which is part of reason and life.

Without God, there is no morality. With God, there is no purpose.
