On February 29, Thursday morning, in Neshoba County, a fire tragically took the life of a 5-year-old boy named DJ.
DJ’s sister, Gabrielle Segears, made a GoFundMe to help the family through this horrible time.
The family said he was sweet, loving and outgoing.
“An unthinkable nightmare occurred when a house fire took place and claimed the life of our sweet baby brother DJ. He was only 5 years old and he was such a sweet, loving, outgoing kid who had so much more life to live. My family is devastated. They lost everything, all they have left is the clothes on their backs..we are asking for prayers and any donations to help cover funeral expenses and to help our surviving family members recover and get back on their feet.”
The fire happened around 5:30 a.m. on County Road 737.
Everything was lost in the fire and on top of that, the family must now pay for funeral expenses for DJ.
