Donations Sought For Massapequa Crash Victims

UNIONDALE, NY — A family is grieving after the unthinkable.

Three family members were killed in a Massapequa crash Sunday night, and now a GoFundMe page has been established.

Patrice Huntley, 60, was driving his four children and step-grandaughter to celebrate his son's birthday and job promotion, the GoFundMe states.

But there would be no party.

While waiting at a red light, a car slammed into the Huntley's vehicle. Police said the car was speeding.

Patrice, his 12-year-old daughter Hannah and his 11-year-old son Jeremiah, who lived in Uniondale, were killed.

Patrice's 18-year-old step-daughter Brienna and five-year-old step-granddaughter were critically hurt, according to the GoFundMe.

"We are seeking to raise funds to pay for burial expenses, cover long-term care expenses for the surviving children and pay legal fees to ensure the driver(s) are prosecuted to the full extent of the law."

The crash happened on Sunrise Highway near Unqua Road.
