Donations Still Needed For Sgt. Alison Wray's Sons

BERKELEY TOWNSHIP, NJ - Sgt. Alison J. Wray died suddenly and unexpectedly on Nov. 3. Her death was a blow to the Berkeley police department and the community.

Family member Thomas quickly set up a GoFundMe account for Sgt. Wray's two young sons, with a goal of $50,000.

But nearly two weeks after her death, the fund total is far short of its goal, at $17,363.

Sgt. Wray was felled by a stroke on Oct. 29 while she was on duty. She died five days later. Her loss touched many, including Dawn Stevens, wife of the late Detective John Scott Stevens. He died from injuries in a car crash while he was on duty in January 2015.

"In loving memory of my beloved husband, Detective John Scott Stevens, Ocean County Prosecutors Office #3514. EOW 01-21-2015 May the far reaching arms of our blue family surround Sgt. Wray’s children and family during this very difficult time, and in the future," she wrote. "Heroes live on in our hearts forever."
