In the early hours of Noverber 2nd, Kayla was involved in fatal car accident. She was with two other people who survived the accident. Kayla was sitting in the back seat and was ejected from the car.

So, not only does this family need your prayers but they need your help to give Kayla the funeral she deserves. ….MORE
