Restore peace for Deonteiz's grieving family ❤️

Donation protected
My name is Brittany. I am creating this page for the purpose of raising the money to fund the cleanup of a tragic loss of a young man's life. His name is Deonteiz Turner. He passed away due to gun violence a year ago. The wreckage of his death is still left behind. His mother had to pay her respects for her baby and look at the broken pieces where he took his last breath. I am asking for help clearing the mess and putting back the fence. I'd like to plant a garden and give Deonteiz's mother a proper place for her to visit her son and have a memorial for him. Let me clarify this is solely to raise the money for this project and honor this young man.

Yes, I know I could file on my homeowner's insurance; however, I personally can't afford the rates once they go up. This is an ongoing investigation; therefore, Deonteiz's information can't be released to file the claim. Please do not be insensitive to his grieving mother. I am not here complaining about an old shed or a stupid fence. She shouldn't have to see this anymore. If you are willing to help, we thank you. I am trying to help a grieving mother and, yes, fix the damages. This is also bringing awareness to our community, and I personally have received lots of inboxes offering help.

Thank you to everyone who participated and justice for Deonteiz.
