Tina believed she’d found her happily ever after when she married her high school sweetheart, Richard. At 18, she eloped with him, despite her dream of a traditional wedding. However, shortly after, Tina became pregnant, and Richard’s true colors emerged. He kicked her out, and when she sought help from his parents, they cruelly accused her of infidelity and cut her off completely. Realizing she was on her own, Tina devoted herself to raising her son, Greg, with all her strength.
Greg grew up aware of his father’s abandonment and supported his mother, eventually becoming a successful businessman. Despite his accomplishments, Greg harbored a deep resentment toward Richard. One day, he tracked down Richard, only to find him frail and struggling. Realizing revenge wasn’t worth it, Greg instead bought Richard’s house, which was being repossessed due to debt.
When Richard arrived at the property agent’s office to finalize the sale, he was stunned to see Tina and Greg there. Greg revealed who he was, ordering Richard to vacate with the same words Richard had used years before: “If I see you again, we’ll have a problem.” Tina watched Richard leave, reflecting on the irony of the moment.
3-year-old boy dies in car crash on way to his own birthday party – rest in peace
A heartbreaking tragedy took place when a 3-year-old boy named Josiah Toleafoa was killed on the day he was supposed to celebrate his third birthday.
The sweet boy and his family were at the parking lot of Play City, an indoor venue for kids’ parties, when a car hit Josiah.
Witnesses of the tragedy said that his devastated mother screamed and cried hysterically as paramedics were trying to save his life. Unfortunately, Josiah didn’t make it. He died at the Rady Children’s Hospital.
This family’s lives turned upside down. What was supposed to be a day of joy turned into the worst experience of their lives. Their happiness was replaced with grief and sorrow and their world shattered into a million pieces.
Reportedly, the 36-year-old driver who killed Josiah and whose identity hasn’t been confirmed wasn’t under influence of drugs or alcohol. He stayed at the scene and cooperated with the authorities and reasons behind the loss of control haven’t been confirmed.
Members of the family started a GoFundMe to help Josiah’s mom and dad with the funeral expenses.
“JOSIAH brought the family together- his incredible SMILE, LOVING HEART simply brought JOY to any room. There was no time to see him do amazing things. I KNOW HE WOULD HAVE MADE A DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD,” the boy’s aunt, Tatiana Toleafoa wrote.
“We’re doing this gofundme to help with my sweet nephew’s funeral expenses and services for the little angel that touched so many lives in so many different ways before he was called to Heaven. Any amount would help, anything at all. We are so thankful to have loving family and friends to be with us and love us through this horrible tragedy and want to be able to put him to rest to say goodbye and never forget the little boy who loved with a tremendous heart,” the page stated.
The owner of Play City donated $2,000 to the Josiah’s family and that the landlord matched his donation as well.
Currently, no arrests have been made.
We are so very sorry for this family’s heartbreak. There is no greater loss than that of losing a child.
Rest in peace, Josiah.
