HOUSTON COUNTY:   On Monday morning a tragic set of circumstances occurred which claimed the life of a 19 year old father.

On Monday on Highway 84 East in Ashford a young man known as Danny “DJ” Brown was driving on Highway 84 with his one year old daughter. Apparently DJ ran off the road into the median and the Chevrolet Blazer flipped three times ejecting him from the wreckage. The baby, Kaitlyn, was strapped in the back seat in the car seat. She received minor injuries.

Kaitlyn will be one year old on July 19^th.

DJ and Tiffany had started their life together and things were going pretty good. They have been together for two years – celebrating the two years July 13^th.

Now Tiffany and DJ’s family have to bury DJ. As you can see in the pictures with Kaitlyn he was a loving father and loved his daughter and Tiffany.

Now Tiffany, Kaitlyn and family needs the  help of the community. There is no burial insurance to handle the funeral expenses.

If you would be so kind to help please send your donations to Sunset Funeral Home earmarked for Danny “DJ” Brown.

Some friends are also having a car wash Friday afternoon at 4 PM in Ashford at the Food Depot. There some friends will wash cars in order to raise some money to help Tiffany, Kaitlyn and family in their immediate needs and funeral expenses. They are also working on selling hotdogs and hamburgers that same day. We will keep you informed.

Please help them. I have met DJ and he was a nice and polite young man.
