On Tuesday, July 4, family member Ada Redondo announced via GoFundMe that Christian, the fourth child, had died.
“Unfortunately today he has left to be with our Heavenly Father,” Ada wrote.
“This has been a terrible tragedy to the Redondo Family, we lost four beautiful children that are now with God.”
Ada hopes to raise enough money to transport Christian’s body back to Long Island, “where he was born and raised.”
Just two days prior, Ada, who appears to be the aunt of at least three of the children, implored the community to help raise money to bury the first trio killed in the crash.
The first fundraiser, now closed, raised over $20,000 in three days.
Now, the community has supplied $14,450 of the $15,000 goal to bring Christian’s body home, with many leaving words of support along with donations.
Along with condolences, donor Kelly Molloy wrote that she was “sending love to help the family through this difficult time.”
“I’m so sorry for your loss,” wrote donor Jasmine Palacios.
“There are no words that can explain the grief but I pray God gives the family strength to deal with this tragedy.”
Christian's mother was in critical condition at the time of the crash but has recently been discharged from the hospital, an acquaintance of the family told Daily Voice.
