A heartbreaking tragedy took place when a 3-year-old boy named Josiah Toleafoa was killed on the day he was supposed to celebrate his third birthday.
The sweet boy and his family were at the parking lot of Play City, an indoor venue for kids’ parties, when a car hit Josiah.
Witnesses of the tragedy said that his devastated mother screamed and cried hysterically as paramedics were trying to save his life. Unfortunately, Josiah didn’t make it. He died at the Rady Children’s Hospital.
This family’s lives turned upside down. What was supposed to be a day of joy turned into the worst experience of their lives. Their happiness was replaced with grief and sorrow and their world shattered into a million pieces.
Reportedly, the 36-year-old driver who killed Josiah and whose identity hasn’t been confirmed wasn’t under influence of drugs or alcohol. He stayed at the scene and cooperated with the authorities and reasons behind the loss of control haven’t been confirmed.
Members of the family started a GoFundMe to help Josiah’s mom and dad with the funeral expenses.
“JOSIAH brought the family together- his incredible SMILE, LOVING HEART simply brought JOY to any room. There was no time to see him do amazing things. I KNOW HE WOULD HAVE MADE A DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD,” the boy’s aunt, Tatiana Toleafoa wrote.
“We’re doing this gofundme to help with my sweet nephew’s funeral expenses and services for the little angel that touched so many lives in so many different ways before he was called to Heaven. Any amount would help, anything at all. We are so thankful to have loving family and friends to be with us and love us through this horrible tragedy and want to be able to put him to rest to say goodbye and never forget the little boy who loved with a tremendous heart,” the page stated.
The owner of Play City donated $2,000 to the Josiah’s family and that the landlord matched his donation as well.
Currently, no arrests have been made.
We are so very sorry for this family’s heartbreak. There is no greater loss than that of losing a child.
Rest in peace, Josiah.
My Ex-husband’s New Wife Unexpectedly Contacted Me – What She Wrote Made Me Go Pale
When my spouse, Kevin, unintentionally contacted me instead of his lover five years ago, my entire world crumbled. Jess, I detest her. With all of my being, I detest Bridget. Not even a baby can be born to her.” It broke my heart to know he was unfaithful and felt sorry for me since I couldn’t conceive.
After our divorce, I got a big settlement that included a stake in his business. Kevin wed Jessica, the person he had an affair with, shortly after. I ignored any news about them and moved on until Jessica reached out to me a month ago, looking for help and afraid.
“I told him to get rid of it, but Kevin doesn’t want the baby,” she revealed. He lost too much money in the divorce.
I made the decision to assist her despite our past. I took Kevin to court and proposed that she live into my lake house. A letter disclosing his requests and cautioning him against harassment was drafted by my attorney.
Kevin’s demise was brought about by our discovery of financial malfeasance in his organization. Jessica made the decision to keep the baby, and we became friends in the meanwhile.
Knowing that justice had been done and Kevin had to pay for his acts, this ordeal gave me closure. Karma only requires a small prod from time to time.
