The family of a firefighter that was killed in a car accident is asking for the communities help.
Thomas Fling was 19 years old when he was killed in a head-on collision on February 11.
Mindy Summitt, Fling’s Aunt said the family has held some fundraisers, but the pandemic came only a month after the death of her nephew.
Summit said the family still owes around $6,000 for his funeral. They’ve also held different fundraisers and raised over $1,000, which was put toward funeral costs.
The family has an account set up at FNBC Bank and donations can be placed in the Thomas Fling Memorial account at any FNBC location.
The bank will write a cashier’s check directly to the funeral home so that none of the family will handle the money.
Fling was a member of the ROTC program, Hardy Fire Department, and was previously a Jr. firefighter at the Bono Fire Department.
