GoFundMe Established For Two People Killed By A Drunk Driver On Hwy 395 In Hesperia

HESPERIA, CA. (Pain In The Pass) >> A GoFundMe page has been established to help the grieving family of Nicole and Amelia Ruddy, who were killed in a head-on collision by a drunk driver on January 21, 2023. Nicole, who was 33 years old, was 35 weeks pregnant with her daughter Amelia at the time of the accident. 

The crash happened at about 11:40pm on Saturday, January 21, 2023. The head-on collision was located on Highway 395 just after Poplar Street in the city of Hesperia.

Her husband Andrew was also in the vehicle at the time of the accident and suffered major injuries. Andrew will have to undergo surgery to repair his injuries. The family stands together in support of him in the time of tragedy. This memorial fund is to raise money for the family and to support Andrew’s medical bills as well as any other unexpected costs during this difficult time for the Ruddy & Gonzalez families. All funds will be going directly to Andrew Ruddy.

We encourage those who are able to contribute to do so, and to keep the Ruddy & Gonzalez families in their thoughts and prayers.

On behalf of friends and family of Nicole and Amelia Ruddy, we also remind everyone of the dangers of drunk driving and the importance of making responsible choices when it comes to getting behind the wheel.

The GoFundMe page setup for Nicole and Amelia Ruddy is to cover the funeral expenses and medical bills.
