Tommy Moorehead III, age 41, and his two children, Tommy Jr., age 4, and Lynnlee, age 6, lost their life in a terrible three-vehicle car accident.
According to the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS), the terrible event happened on Saturday when a 2007 Dodge 3500 traveling west on FM-3133 attempted to pass a 2017 Toyota Tacoma in a no-passing zone and collided head-on with a 2003 Chevrolet Silverado.
Tommy and his kids were killed when the Chevy caught fire.
While the horrific vehicle crash incident is still being investigated, the Texas Highway Patrol has made an arrest.
The driver of the Dodge, Rocky Patterson, 63, is accused of three counts of manslaughter, a second-degree felony. As of Monday, he is still being held at the Grayson County Jail on a $3 million bond.
For Tommy’s wife, Brooke Mustard Moorehead, who lost her whole family, a GoFundMe page has been created.
Brooke lost it all in a split second. Tommy was a loving husband and father who put in a lot of effort and had a deep affection for his family, according to the page.
“Lynnlee exuded vitality, happiness, and curiosity.” Tommy Jr. was a happy and loving little boy who was just starting out in the world.
For nearly ten years, Brooke has been a pillar of our restaurant family. She is devoted, diligent, kind, and resilient. She has always shown love, respect, and grace to all around her.
The fundraiser went on: “She is now dealing with the unthinkable. We must all support her during this extremely trying moment.
“We are collecting money to help Brooke with funeral planning and the numerous unforeseen costs that come with such a devastating loss.
“We want to show her the love and support she so richly deserves because nobody should have to go through this alone.”
Out of the $150,000 target, $92,000 has been raised as of this writing.
