We are Dayea and Brian, family friends of the young girls in the photos (Arianna and Elisha).
Two days ago, on March 28 at approximately 12:30 pm, 5-year-old Arianna and her 10-year-old sister (included in the video and Halloween photo) Elisha were involved in a tragic car accident, leading to the unfortunate losses of Arianna and their father, with Elisha being the sole survivor.
The loss of Arianna has weighed heavily on the hearts of many, with the community mourning the passing of such a young and innocent soul.
Elisha survived the accident and was airlifted to the hospital immediately, where she currently remains, receiving treatment for her injuries.
Arianna was a bubbly, cheerful young girl who adored Hello Kitty (her favorite character was Kuromi). She loved it so much that for her 5th birthday, she had a Hello Kitty-themed party.
She and Elisha loved coming over to our house when we often babysat them. They loved to make hot chocolate and indulge in the snacks and toys we spoiled them with.
They loved to play games like Cooking Mama, run around and play outside, and dance.
Their favorite show is Bluey, and they would often watch it together at our house.
Arianna was kind to everyone. There wasn’t a single time she would see Dayea and not run up to her and give her a hug.
Elisha was more shy and reserved, but nevertheless also the sweetest thing. She loved her sister and took care of her like any older sister would.
We haven’t felt such sadness and remorse in a long time until two days ago when we heard the news of the accident. We are here today to ask for support for the family. We want to raise funds to cover funeral expenses, hospital bills, and any other financial challenges they will face.
We are all torn over the loss, and we would appreciate any help we can get to support the grieving family. Thank you so much.
