A Utah family is grieving the loss of a 17-year old girl, who lost her life, after being hit by a pickup truck while walking to school.
Lilly Warren, a high school senior at Springville High in Utah, was struck Tuesday morning just before 8 a.m.
According to a GoFundMe page set up to raise money to help pay medical bills, Warren was resuscitated at the scene, but suffered multiple injuries, including a severe traumatic brain injury.
She was immediately rushed to a nearby hospital, only to pass away from her injuries the following day.
“The light of our life, Lilly Warren, passed away peacefully at Utah Valley Hospital surrounded by her family after succumbing to her injuries from the tragic accident on Canyon Road in Springville, Utah,” reads an update on the GoFundMe page.
“We are so grateful to all of the witnesses, first responders, bystanders, and Utah Valley Hospital staff who rendered lifesaving care to Lilly and helped her to survive one more day so that we could all be gathered around her and let her know how much she is loved before she passed,” the post continues.
The incident occurred Tuesday while Warren was crossing S. Canyon Road, a few blocks away from her school.
Authorities said, “The driver remained at the scene after hitting Warren. The driver was very cooperative and sorrowful for the accident.”
The crash is still under investigation and no charges have been filed.
The GoFundMe organizer said in a statement that Lilly’s accident has impacted her younger brothers and so many of her family, friends, classmates, and every person that Lilly met and made immediate friends with.
“We had an amazing day with some reassuring hand squeezes that let us all know that Lilly could hear us,” said the organizer, who added that her loved ones’ “hearts go out to the driver and his family who are also grieving at this time.”
“Lilly will live on through organ donation,” they added, “and will bless the lives of other families who have waited for their own miracle.”
Bad news for all. Rest little angel mercy & peace to your folks & family. I also feel for the driver. Terrible for all involved.
The next time you get.
((((((((( ACID REFLUX))))))))))) , take a couple sips of the juice out of a pickle jar and your acid reflux will stop. Your doctor and your government knows vinegar works but you dont and you keep buying nexium and prilosec and the drug companies keep making MONEY off of the publics ((((((IGNORANCE))))))))). The majority of the public never learn anything until they try it . Now how much money did you pay your doctor to sell you a pill that they know doesn’t cure anything. Have a nice day.
Biden and the Democrats have ruined the economy. Vote Democrat and stay poor.
Donnie T is a MORON. He cannot follow SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS.
People are hit by vehicles every year when they run or walk into a street or highway without first looking. My home is 60 feet from a highway. Every time one of my childrens cats would get hit on the highway, i would let my children see the cat and tell them to stay away from the highway because this is what happens when animals get on the highway and get hit , they die, and you dont want to be like your cat , do you. They never went near the highway.
I bet those dang liberal demoncrats will want to ban pickup trucks now just like they want to ban our assault rifles!!! Pickup trucks & guns don’t kill people, people kill people!!! It’s civil war time people!!! God bless Q!!! Trump is our savior!!!
Ronnie,
If you believe Trump is our savior then you are going to be disappointed my friend. Jesus is our Lord and Savior, trust in him, HE will not disappoint, man will.
I am also a Trumper, and I believe he is savvy enough to get us out of the mess we’re in with God’s Grace and help.
Jesus christ is a fake belief, the biggest fraud ever perpetrated on humanity. If jesus christ is real like his followers claim and he can do anything , then why didnt Jesus Christ save all those innocent people and children that Timothy Mcveigh murdered at the federal building in Oklahoma city when that ryder rental truck blew up with all that ammonium nitrate. Why didn’t Jesus Christ stop those 2 airplanes from crashing into the 2 world trade center towers and killing all those innocent people and children. You or anyone cannot prove jesus christ even exists. If you can prove it then send him to me, i bet he wont show. The bible is fake, just like the idiot that was hung on the cross. People get that stupid belief in their stupid heads.
You can just kiss my ass since this is a PUBLIC SITE and i am entitled to my opinion without your interference. I stopped feeling sorry for people when i served in the military and i received a honorable discharge because i kept my eyes and ears open , used my brain and kept my mouth shut. I met alot of stupid people in the military and several received dishonorable discharges because they could not follow simple instructions or orders. Before i entered the military , my test scores were better than most. I told my children to always look both ways twice at a railroad track before crossing it because trains cannot stop on a dime . People are always in a hurry and hurry causes accidents.
JJ – It’s pretty much a proven fact at this point that both the Oklahoma City bombing and the World Trade Center attacks were faked, similar to the Sandy Hook Elementary School “massacre” and the Parkland shootings. Offer up some proof that any of these events actually happened, and weren’t elaborately staged fakes perpetrated by a cabal of child raping Demoncrat elites, and maybe we’ll be more interested in hearing your opinion about our Lord & Savior, President Donald Trump!!!
Don’t believe ANYTHING donnie t says. He would never make it in the military because he cannot follow SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS. I tell him to take a couple sips of pickle juice for his acid reflux and he drinks 3 gallons and wonders why he has problems. HE IS A MORON.
Biden and the Democrats have ruined the economy. Inflation under Trump was 1.8%. Now inflation is 9% under the biden administration. Fuel under Trump was $2 a gallon, under biden it went over $5 a gallon in many states. Food prices are high. The interest rate just went up another .75 %. The prices of everything has riden dramatically. Biden let illegals in and wants to give them free social security when Americans have worked and paid in to receive it. Stupid people never learn anything, they keep voting for the same party that keeps screwing them. It takes Democrats longer to catch on. Vote Democrat and stay poor. TRUMP 2024. America is already disappointed with biden. Save America Mr.Trump
Ronnie D. Jesus Christ is a fake belief. You say he will not disappoint. He didnt stop the 2 planes that hit the world trade center. Every sunday people put MONEY on the collection plate at church hoping they will be saved.
Joe.
She ran out into the street without looking, period.
JJ,
Now is not the time for those types of comments. Be compassionate and let both these families grieve without a”I told you so”. We don’t know how it happened, so be positive in your posting or DON’T POST!
JxJ is an ignorant MORON. There is no excuse for IGNORANCE.
Most teens think they know everything until something happens and she was still going to school and learning. She should have looked both ways before she crossed the street. Her parent or parents should have taught her that or she ignored their advice. There is no excuse for IGNORANCE. The military taught me that i am responsible for my actions and also to watch out for my fellow soldiers because my negligence could get them killed.
Please stfu.
This is a public site and there is no excuse for IGNORANCE.
JXJ is also an ignorant moron.
