Galatians 6:9 We must not become tired of doing good. We will receive our harvest of eternal life at the right time if we do not give up.
Two Texas women are launching a fundraising campaign to provide a proper funeral for a homeless man killed in an accident.
Duc Van Tran lived below an overpass in Houston. Two women, Adriana Castro Garcia and Rosa Quintero would notice him. They brought him food and other items. They would check in on him to see how he was doing.
Then one day, he was gone.
“I really don’t watch TV or listen to the radio so I had no idea what happened until the beginning of this month,” good Samaritan Rosa Quintero said.
On May 12th, a man named Jamie Dorn was driving drunk. He jumped the curb near where Tran was sleeping and ran over him, killing him.
Quintero called the medical examiner’s office to see if anyone had claimed Tran’s body. No one had claimed it, but the employee told her that it would be “very expensive” for Quintero to do it.
“I just want to be able to provide him a nice funeral,” Quintero said.
“I mean he was somebody he needs somebody to at least say hey we saw you here and you are part of us even though there was no communication you mattered to somebody,” Castro Garcia said.
The two have raised over $5,000 for the funeral thus far.
