Support for the Hickerson Family

On Tuesday, Sept. 20, 19-year-old Tyler Hickerson, tragically lost his life in a car accident. Tyler, who had just graduated from Dora High School in May and married his high school sweetheart Allie Haley Hickerson in March, was known and loved by many for his sweet smile, helping hand and good heart. Tyler and Allie had recently signed the paperwork to purchase their first home, an expense that Allie is now left with on her own.

This tragedy isn't the first that struck the Hickerson family. In 2008, the Hickersons lost their only other son, Rodger Neil, after he died unexpectedly from a fall. The grief and sacrifice that this family has endured is immeasurable. Please keep Kim, Rodger, Allie and the rest of the Hickerson family and friends in your prayers, and donate if you feel led to help with funeral expenses, house payments and anything else they may need in the coming months. Monetary donations can also be left at Clinkingbeard Funeral Home in Gainesville.
