KILLED BY DRUNK DRIVER BECAUSE JUDGES KEPT GIVING THE KILLER SECOND CHANCES – OVER AND OVER AGAIN – Alonza Jefferson was a father of two working two jobs when killed by DUI driver Matthew Pernell VSP 122816

A GoFundMe account has been established by Mr. Jefferson’s family, to help with funeral expenses.

My daddy, Alonza Jefferson Jr., was taken from us suddenly and unexpectedly in a tragic car accident cause by a drunk driver. I lieu of this, my family is having financial needs that can’t be met on our own regarding his funeral and memorial services. A new policy at the funeral home my daddy wanted to be taken to requires payment upfront before taking on services. We were not expecting this and now have to graciously and thankfully ask for any and all help that anyone may be able to offer. My family is hurting, we lost our backbone of the family, he was our glue and led our family so strongly and with so much pride. We want to give my dad a beautiful service and fulfill his wishes for this unfortunate event in our lives. I ask that if you can, any donation is so greatly appreciated and helps my family tremendously. We love my daddy so much and we know he is happy and safe and at home with our Heavenly Father. Thank you all so much for your love and support during this time. We love each and every one of you.
Help spread the word!
