Personal note

My beloved father, Gary Robert Johnson,Sr. has tragically succumbed to the injuries he sustained from a violent hit-and-run incident in Los Angeles, CA.

A Valiant Fight Cut Short

Over the summer, Gary was involved in a devastating crime. A hit-and-run driver struck him, leaving him with critical injuries. For months, he fought a valiant battle for his life, showing incredible resilience. Just last month, we celebrated his move to a rehabilitation center, where he continued to make small but remarkable improvements in his condition.

It is with absolute devastation that we share that Gary has unexpectedly succumbed to these injuries. Our family is heartbroken by this sudden loss, especially after witnessing his strength and hard-won progress.

Our Urgent Need for Dignified Closure
This prolonged medical journey has brought our family immense grief and an unexpected financial crisis. We were devastated to learn that a life insurance policy we believed was in place had sadly not been in place

We did not have the funds saved for funeral and burial expenses, and we are now humbly asking for your help. Our only goal is to give Gary the respectful and peaceful farewell he deserves and bring closure to our grieving family.

Any amount donated will be used exclusively to cover the critical funeral and memorial costs.

Thank You for Your Support
Though the driver who committed this tragic act remains at large, our focus right now is solely on honoring Gary’s memory and laying him to rest.

This tragedy has cost our family greatly, leaving us in deep distress. Thank you so much for your love, support, and generosity as we try to navigate this impossible time and say a final goodbye to our father.
