Memorial Fund for David Martinez

Donation protected

On Saturday, December 14th at 4:45 A.M. my uncle David was driving to his usual 5 A.M. dialysis appointment at DaVita in Waukegan when the unexpected happened ... while driving southbound he was struck by another vehicle driving northbound which for an unknown reason crossed into his lane and collided head on into my uncle’s vehicle, leaving the cars mangled ... David was pronounced dead on the scene.

In the days to follow, our family grieved in private,
however, we have been overwhelmed with the outpouring support we have received on social media.

Many have been wondering about the third victim briefly mentioned in the news ... that third victim was my uncle David, a husband, father, grandfather, uncle and most importantly a man of God. 

We cannot put into words how much it means for us to see so many people who did not know David sharing his story, praying, asking questions, searching for ways to help our family during this tragic time. 

We have made this page to allow all who have asked for ways to help our family as we navigate this horrific accident. All of the money raised will go directly to my aunts to help cover funeral expenses along with alleviating some of the future cost that my aunt will be left with. 

On behalf of our family, we want to thank you for your prayers & for all your support.
