Keonte Johnson's Funeral Expenses
Donation protected
Keonte Johnson just turned 23 on 5/13 and was tragically shot and died the morning of 5/14/18. Just one day after his birthday and Mothers Day. He leaves behind 2 young children Dejanae and Cameron, his mother Tanya and step dad Jerry, his sister Takeea and his brother Lowkey, his grandma Michelle.
Keonte was the youngest of the 3 and had the biggest heart and a beautiful smile. he could always make you laugh even at times when you didn't feel like laughing. I have been close to this family for 13 years and have known Keonte since he was just 10 years old. I love him like a son. I remember babysitting him when he was 11 and out of school because he fell at school and needed stitches my heart sank then when I heard he was hurt, that day Keonte and I hung out together and watched movies. My children and all 3 of Tanyas children grew up together these past 13 years, I cant help but think of the boy with the cutest eyes and biggest smile playing here at my house as a child, singing karaoke. I am so heart broken for them all.
Please donate to help with the unexpected funeral cost that has tragically and suddenly been brought upon this family so that they may be able to honor the precious life of Keonte and give him a funeral service that he so deserves. It is so hard to lose a family member and even harder when the family member is your child that passes away a day after his birthday which also happened to fall on Mothers day this year. Please support Tanya and her family all donations are appreciated and will go to the family for funeral expenses, anything over the cost will go into a trust fund for his children that lost their daddy.
His Mom Tanya gave me permission to do this for Keonte. He was a good daddy,son, brother, grandson, and friend we can all pull together and help his family during this tragic time so that they may be able to honor him .
