Please help us get through this tragedy

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Teresa Perez and I am the aunt of Pedro Gabriel Lopez Perez (age 14), who was in a tragic car accident with his father Domingo Lopez Marcos (age 31), and Ambrosio Santiago Santiago (age 23). On the night of January 9th, 2023 at approximately 11 PM. My nephew Pedro, his father Domingo, and their friend Ambrosio were returning from Domingo's job in Eagle Ridge Resort to their home in Galena, IL when another vehicle attempted to pass a tractor-trailer. The passing vehicle crashed into Domingo's car at high speeds when illegally crossing the center line. Unfortunately, Domingo and Ambrosio lost their lives during the tragic accident and Pedro was left in critical condition Pedro is also an eighth grader at Galena Middle School in Galena, IL. Our family is seeking donations to help cover the costs of the funeral home services and of shipping Domingo & Ambrosios' bodies back to Nebaj, Guatemala where Domingo's wife (my sister) and 2 minor children, as well as Ambrosios' father and wife, will be awaiting their return. Your help is very important to us because we do not have the means to cover these big expenses. In advance, my family and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support. May God bless your family and please keep ours in your prayers.
