Fund established to aid family of Redondo Beach boy hit by truck
I spent a couple hours out the memorial growing at the Albertsons supermarket on Artesia Boulevard in Redondo Beach. There's a 20-foot-long display of flowers, candles, stuffed animals, candles and photographs growing out there where 7-year-old Jeremy Perez died. Jeremy was hit by an Albertsons truck on Friday. My updated story will appear a little later on dailybreeze.com.
But for now you can begin donating money if you like to help Jeremy's family pay for his funeral.
Donations to the Jeremy Perez Memorial Fund can be made at any of the 11 Wells Fargo Bank branches in the South Bay in care of bank vice president Jamal B. Shofani and account number 5180865940.
Donations made online should be made in Shofani's name with the account number.
*UPDATE: Family members have set a public memorial service on the beach at
