CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. – Family and friends of a 19-year-old shot to death Friday in Clarksville are raising money for the teenager’s burial.
The family of Adam Marquez would like to bring his body back to his hometown of Brooklyn, NY so he can be laid to rest near his grandfather.
A viewing will be held Tuesday from 4 – 7 p.m. at McReynolds-Nave & Larson Funeral Home and the funeral service will be held at 7 p.m.
Following the service, Adam’s body will be flown back to Brooklyn for burial, but the costs of flying his 13 siblings will be nearly $10,000. The family has set up a Go Fund Me account to help with the costs.
So far, about $4,900 has been raised for the flight. Visit the account here to donate.
Two adults and one juvenile have been arrested in connection with Adam’s death and police are investigating the case as a homicide. Read the full story here.
