Funeral Costs for Quintonio Legrier

Quintonio Legrier was a bright and promising young man. As a high school student he had good grades, was a natural leader and even ran the 2013 Bank of America Chicago Marathon with a group of his classmates from Gwendolyn Brooks College Prep to raise funds to bring clean water to children in Africa.  (through the charity Team World Vision)

 

It is rare to find adults with enough courage and compassion to take on the challenge of a marathon on behalf of the poor let alone a teenager.  He, and his other Brooks High School teammates were incredibly INSPIRATIONAL. 

 

Quintonio was taken from this world on Saturday, December 26th when he was struck and tragically killed by a Chicago police officer. 

 

In an effort to honor him and help his family while they grieve we are trying to raise the full amount of his funeral and memorial costs of $15,000.  

 

Your gift will go to House of Branch Funeral Home (Chicago, IL) but will be appreciated by Quintonio's family, friends and classmates.  

 

Thank You
