In Loving Memory Of Julian

Dear friends and family Im writing to you today as a loving father and grandfather who, along with my wife and family, had a very tragic event happen to our family. My beautiful daughter, Brooke, who was 7 months pregnant with my grandson, Julian, were involved in a bad car accident last Friday in the Land O Lakes/Lutz area. She was leaving the store, where she had just picked up a few things for the baby shower, which was supposed to be this Sunday, but my beautiful grandson passed away instantly at the crash scene. She had a green light and proceeded into the intersection and another driver hit her in the driver's side, going approx 50 mph. I don't even know how she survived but by the grace of God. My daughter was going to be a single mom as the baby's father wanted nothing to do with the little boy that he created, which my daughter struggled with . So, I moved her back home and told her that I would be the baby's grandpa and daddy figure. I built her a nursery and got her a crib. Since she found out she was pregnant, she has done everything by the book to ensure the best health for her son. She has worked so hard to fill the nursery with all her son could need. She was going to be the best mother . She is currently in the hospital with multiple injuries but will survive. She will be unable to walk on her own for weeks and unable to work for a few months. I dont have facebook but I have heard of go fund me accounts . I am writing this to ask help with something my daughter would like. When she realized she had lost the vehicle that she has worked so hard for, she said, how will i get back and forth to work, I told her that once she was ready and able to drive again, we would help her get a new vehicle and she said daddy, can I get jeep? I want to be up higher in the air so this can never happen again. I broke down so hard, sitting there watching my daughter banged up from head to toe, I promised to get her a jeep. She’s already lost everything, her only child, her independence, her dignity and her transportation to and from her job. The only one of these things that I can do anything about is to help her get a vehicle so that she can get to and from work when the time is right. This would alleviate only one worry from her mind but my goal is to pick one out and have it at home for her when she can drive again in a few months. 5000.00 down should leave her with a manageable payment . A lot of people have been asking what they can do, well, this would be a nice way for all who give a little could say they helped a little. Thankfully the insurence will pay off her old car for her. I have never had a go fund me account before and feel weird asking for money but I know in my heart that she will be so thankful and this will help us out tremendously. She is an amazing person and a hard worker. She works as a server in the Land o Lakes area. Many customers ask for her by name as she is just an amazing worker. Im sure lots of dads would say that about their daughters but she is a special girl with tons of friends. Thank you all for your prayers and support as we will sure need them today and moving foward . God bless you all and thank you from the bottom of my heart. My wife, Vickie, will post updates on Brooke periodically.

With love Ronnie John and family.
