Perry Walton, my best friend, lost his son, Keith Walton, yesterday after a drunk driver hit his grandmother’s van. There are no words for a loss like this. On top of losing Keith so suddenly, Krystals mother was injured in the crash and had to have surgery. His family is facing heartbreak and trauma all at once.

Right now, Perry and Krystal can’t eat or sleep. He needs time away from work to be with his family and get through these first painful days together. I’m starting this fundraiser to help ease the immediate financial pressure so Perry can focus on his family instead of how they will manage everything right now.

Donations will help cover Keith’s funeral expenses and at least a month of household bills while Perry is off work helping his family. If you’re able to give, any amount will mean so much. Please also consider sharing this fundraiser to support Perry and the Walton family during this devastating time.
