Parents Killed by DUI Driver

Tragedy struck on Saturday night, September 26, 2020 as a mother and father were on their way home from bingo, a weekly ritual they both loved. Heidi and Kirsten de Bellotte were just a few miles from their home in Royal Oaks, California when they were struck head-on by a 21-year-old driver that was under the influence, as their daughters Tanisha (21) and Taylor (20) awaited their return. The drunk driver along with three other passengers, lost control of his Chevy truck as he veered over the double yellow line, resulting in the death of Heidi and Kirsten de Bellotte immediately upon impact.
            Heidi and Kirsten, married for over 20 years, are survived by their three daughters, Tanisha (21) and Taylor (20) who lived at home with their parents and Tiffany (32) who lives in Washington DC. Their lives were instantly changed and will truly never be the same, when their parents never returned home that Saturday night. Being the youngest and living together Tanisha and Taylor now have a long road ahead in this new stage of their life, forced to mature quickly, while they take on the responsibilities of themselves and each other.
            Support for Tanisha and Taylor will help aid in the relief of the general cost of living; food and water, rent, utility bills, education. Any funds raised will also go directly to the upcoming funeral costs associated with this tragic accident. Both Tanisha and Taylor are overwhelmingly grateful for any contributions in support of their current situation.

Both Tanisha and Taylor de Bellotte will be the direct beneficiaries to this gofundme fundraiser and will be withdrawing the funds directly, as needed. I, Brad Palmer, have set up this GoFundMe on behalf of Tanisha de Bellotte, as her employer. Please feel free to email me if you have any questions about the fundraiser.
