Kailee Mills
Kailee Mills, 16, had just left home with her friends to go to a Halloween party. She was riding in the backseat, and only traveling a mile away to a friend’s house. They were only a few blocks away from home when the car she was riding in veered off the road. The car rolled over, Kailee was ejected from the backseat of the car, and died instantly. Her three friends walked away with only minor cuts and bruises. Kailee was the only one in the car not wearing a seat belt. Just seconds before the crash, Kailee removed her seat belt to slide over in the backseat and take a selfie with her friend. It was that split second that shattered the hearts of so many. We never thought it would happen to us—to our daughter. We know that if she was wearing her seat belt, she’d still be here. Instead, the girl we called our “ray of sunshine”, is gone.
And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.

Makayla Bonura
Makayla Bonura, 16, gained her wings on August 3rd, 2021. Makayla and her three friends were involved in a car crash while driving over the speed limit. Makayla and another passenger lost their lives after being ejected from the vehicle that their friend was driving. The accident happened three days before her junior year of high school was supposed to start.
Makayla was a very strong willed, beautiful girl who had many people that loved her. She had the most distinct laugh that could be heard from a distance. She was a wonderful sister to her 4 siblings who she loved more than anything. She loved hanging out with her friends, sleeping late on the weekends, and traveling with her grandparents. Her friends and family meant so much to her. After the accident so many people shared stories with us about how respectful and kind she was. She had plans to go to college and wanted to work with children with special needs. She often spoke about having children of her own one day. She never gave up when it came to something she wanted. Her determination would have led her to do great things in life.
Makayla will live on forever in the hearts of her family and friends. We carry her with us every where we go and try to find ways to honor her daily. We hope that by sharing her story others will think twice about how they can stay safe when getting into a vehicle.
Garrett Spry
Garrett, 16 gained his wings on March 26, 2022. Garrett, his sister, and her friend were on their way home from hanging out and they stopped in a gravel parking lot to do donuts. The friend driving the car, struck a guy wire supporting a utility pole. By hitting the cable, the vehicle flipped on its side, partially ejecting Garrett, who was unrestrained. He was pronounced deceased on impact at the scene. The driver and Garrett’s sister walked away with no injuries. Garrett was full of life. He was always trying to live life to the fullest. He was a very talented and avid baseball player and an honor roll student on track to graduate a year early. He was very eager to please others and had a servant’s heart. One classmate said, “his heart was kind, and his smile always uplifted the mood in the classroom, even on Mondays.” Another classmate said Garrett took his shoes off his feet and shared them with him because the classmate needed tennis shoes that day. These were Nike tennis shoes, and Garrett didn’t know this, but the classmate had never owned a pair of Nike tennis shoes before. Garrett was loved by so many at Willis High School and will be greatly missed by his classmates and the staff. Garrett was also an amazing brother to all 7 of his sisters. He was their best friend, especially the two that were closest in age to him. He is missed dearly, and it’s just not the same around the Walker household without his silliness and his contagious laugh. It is only God that has carried the family through this very difficult time, and no one should have to go through what they are going through. Garrett’s family ask you all to PLEASE #buckleup4Garrett

She loved music and had a passion for dancing, but most of all she loved being an incredible mother. Her son was her entire world and everything she did, she did for him and with him in mind.

Please read what Destiny has inspired Lee to write, and honor her by sharing this post: “As I forever whisper in my daddy’s thoughts, I will speak through his heart. I am Destiny Rose Danford, child of God. I entered this world 11-13-13, and due to seat belt complication I was ejected from the car, receiving my angel wings on 7-14-17. Daddy don’t cry, I didn’t enter this world alone, the Lord sent me on a mission to win souls and bring them closer to Jesus Christ. People say when I entered a room I lit it up, but it was the Lord’s love that glowed through me. Jesus taught my daddy and I to be kind and have compassion for all. Daddy always told me he was the most blessed father ever and it felt like heaven raining on him when I was born. He said I was the true love that he had waited for all his life. Daddy, I know you saw me every second when I was born, and I will forever be the air that you breathe until my mission is completed. Daddy, I know that each teardrop you have cried represents the memories we didn’t have time to make on earth, but there will be infinite memories made when we are together again in heaven, so Daddy please don’t cry. I am praying for everyone on earth to please buckle up, and want people to hear my story to save lives.” #BuckleUp4Destiny #KaileesAngels
Connor Williams
Connor Williams, 15, along with his friend David Waag, 17, were both welcomed home by The Lord in August of 2017. They were both Clark County high school athletes in Springfield, Ohio and full of life and happiness! Both were riding in the backseat, when the car they were in drifted off the right side of the road, over corrected and ran off the left side of the road, hitting two trees. Like so many of us, they were not wearing their seat belts in the backseat. The two in the front seat were wearing their seat belts and survived. Connor was always all about football. He definitely wanted to play at the next level after graduating! His mom, Devin, said, “He was creative and outgoing. He loved drawing and to this day we are still finding random sketches from him throughout the house.” Connor enjoyed being outside and around nature, and he especially loved animals. He was a very active kinesthetic learner, so a typical lecture based high school course was not his style. When he got accepted into Global Impact STEM Academy for high school, he thrived. The hands on learning combined with his raw artistic ability and creativity led him to the dream of being an engineer. With him being only a sophomore when he died, his post graduation plans stopped there. At the time he was more concerned with football games and friends!

Here are some words from his mother, Christi: “Garrett Soileau was an incredible young man with a love for life and a passion for the game of rugby. He had a zest for life like we have never witnessed before. He gave of himself to everyone and made this world a better place. In his short 22 years, he accomplished more than most people do in a lifetime. He traveled across the country playing a sport he loved and made lifetime friendships with everyone he came across. He looked at the positive in people and in life and was always willing to give a helping hand. His smile, great bear-like hugs, laugh and incredible personality are greatly missed. Garrett will never get the opportunity to make his dreams a reality. Please don’t make a mistake that could cut your dreams short.”
