Help for Heidi

Please help Bryant Grund's family after his tragic murder on October 6, 2023. Bryant was a beloved son, brother, and his family's sole provider. Now Heidi needs your help.

At 11:45 PM on October 6th, 2023 Jacksonville police responded to reports of gunfire at the 7400 block of Kylan Drive West on the Northside of Jacksonville. At the scene rested Bryant Grund, shot to death. He was working as an Uber driver for his family late on a Friday night. He was the sole provider for his two younger siblings and his mother, Heidi. They were new to Jacksonville.

Bryant was a good man. He was the sole provider who had stepped up to the plate to care for his family when they needed him most.

He was gunned down by two kids in a cowardly act of senseless violence when they thought it best to target his passenger, a 19-year-old named Antonio Wilis Jr., as part of a contract killing by an infantile rival street gang for a mere $20,000.

Bryant was a good man.

Bryant had no idea who he had in the car with him.

Bryant was working for his family.

Bryant was innocent.

At the time of his death his family was and are still living at an extended-stay hotel trying to find their place in our city.

He leaves behind his mother Heidi and his two younger siblings 12 and 14.

We are asking for your financial help for their family during this challenging time.

The money you donate will go towards Heidi’s efforts to provide food and shelter for her 2 remaining children. She was in between jobs when the attack occurred and needs help bridging the gap until she is back on her feet.

Each dollar donated is a blessing for them.

Thank you for helping their family and your care for our community and may God bless you.
