Fund Reaches Goal for Crash Victims' Family

When a speeding car claimed the lives of Esperanza and Juli Morales last weekend, the devastated family was left with the task of making double funeral arrangements.

The family has chosen to bury the mother and child in Mexico, at considerable expense.

A relative started a GoFundMe campaign to raise enough money to cover their costs. The fund has reached its goal, providing the family with more than $25,000 after expenses.

In addition to the hundreds of contributions, many people left notes of condolence to the family. Sabrianne Farris summed up the thoughts of many when she wrote, “The entire Livermore community is saddened by this tragedy. Please know that we care about you and you are in our prayers daily. May God bring you comfort and peace.”
