HUSBAND KILLED BY DRUNK DRIVER ON THANKSGIVING

ON THANKSGIVING DERRICK YOUNG WAS KILLED IN A CAR ACCIDENT BY A DRUNK DRIVER. THANKFULLY THAT HIS 2 KIDS THAT WERE IN THE VEHICLE WITH HIM HAVE ONLY MINOR INJURIES, BUT HIS WIFE DORTHY YOUNG INJURIES ARE CRITICAL. (HEAD ABRASIONS, LEFT HIP DISLOCATION, INJURY TO LIGAMENT OF CERVICAL SPINE, LACERATIONS OF HER CHIN AND THUMB, LEFT ACETABULAR FRACTURE, AND MULTIPLE RIBS FRACTURES. HIS WIFE HAS A LONG ROAD TO RECOVERY. ME AND MY WIFE ARE ASSISTING HER WHILE SHES RECOVERING, AND THE KIDS ARE STAYING WITH HER SISTERS TO HELP DURING THIS TIME OF NEED. AFTER 4 EMERGENCY SURGERIES, THE SITUATION GOT WORSE WHEN DORTHY WAS RELEASED FROM THE HOSPITAL, ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT THEIR HOME HAD BEEN BURGLARIZED, MOST OF THEIR VALUABLES AND POSSESSIONS WERE STOLEN, INCLUDING THEIR FAMILY VEHICLE. DERRICK YOUNG WAS A MAN OF GOD AND HE PREACHED THE WORD OF GOD EVERYWHERE HE WENT, HE WAS ALSO A WELL KNOW MECHANIC SPECIALIZING IN A/C. I AM THE OWNER OF A USED CAR LOT AND DERRICK WAS MY GO TO MECHANIC, SO HE HELPED MY BUSINESS BY DOING OUR MECHANIC WORK ALLOWING MY BUSINESS TO SUCCEED FINANCIALLY. SO I FEEL THAT ITS ONLY RIGHT THAT I DO SOMETHING TO TRY TO HELP HIS WIFE AND KIDS GET THROUGH THIS TRAGEDY THROUGH GOFUNDME WE HAVE ASSISTED HER (EMOTIONALLY, PHYSICALLY, AND FINANCIALLY) TO THE BEST OF OUR ABILITY DURING THIS TIME OF NEED. THE WAKE IS TODAY DEC 13 6:30-8:00 PM AT RS LEWIS & SON FUNERAL HOME (VANCE) THE FUNERAL IS TOMORROW DECEMBER 14TH 2019-11:00 AM AT TEMPLE OF DELIVERANCE CHURCH OF GOD IN CHRIST 369 G.E PATTERSON AVE. MEMPHIS TENNESSEE, 38126. MY CONCERN IS THAT ONCE DERRICK IS LAID TO REST. WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO HIS FAMILY AFTER THAT ? HOW WILL THEY BE ABLE TO LIVE COMFORTABLY? SO I DECIDED TO SET THIS GOFUNDME UP FOR HIS WIFE AND KIDS. PLEASE DONATE AND SHARE THIS STORY. YOUR HELP WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED
