Lexington, Kentucky – The community is mourning the loss of Derald Johnson, who tragically lost his life in a car accident due to severe brain injuries. Derald, known for his warm smile and big hugs, did not have life insurance, prompting his family to seek financial help for his cremation services.
Stephanie Miller, Derald’s fiancée, has organized a GoFundMe campaign to raise funds for the funeral expenses. The fundraiser, launched today, aims to raise $10,000 to cover the costs. As of now, the family is asking for donations to assist with these expenses.
On Facebook, Meg Henderson expressed her heartbreak, writing, “My heart is broken. To the Chinoe Crew: We’ve lost an integral part of our world. If ever you met D, you knew his smile. Man, did he have the biggest and best smile. Oh, and you best believe he gave the best hugs too!”
The community is encouraged to support the Johnson family during this difficult time by contributing to the fundraiser and spreading the word to help reach the goal.
