Friends Fundraise After Crash Kills Single San Diego Dad

SAN DIEGO, CA -- Friends continued to fundraise Monday for a San Diego boy whose father was killed in a motorcycle crash last month. On a GoFundMe page, friends said 32-year-old Aaron Raspberry, a single dad, left behind his son Emmanuel.

The San Diego County Medical Examiner's Office said Raspberry died Sept. 19, three days after his motorcycle collided with a vehicle pulling out of a driveway in Barrio Logan. Raspberry was pronounced dead at the UCSD Medical Center from blunt force injuries of the torso.

Raspberry, who worked for the city of San Diego, was described as an "amazing" man who cared deeply for his young son.

Friends used the GoFundMe page to mourn Raspberry's death.

"Aaron could draw a smile out of a stone. Perpetually goofy sweet and pure of heart. I know his son will carry on his legacy," wrote Holly Kicklighter.

Mary Ann Wallace wrote, "I'm so sorry to hear of your passing Aaron. You had an unforgettable laugh and zest for life. I remember running into after you got your new position and how much you enjoyed the new challenges. My condolences to your son and family. We will miss you at City Hall."

"Aaron was a wonderful person. I would see him almost every day at work. He always had a good attitude. We would talk about our sons playing football," Esther Woronicz wrote.

The GoFundMe page asked the public to help raise $10,000 for his son.
