The little girl died when she was run over in their driveway by a friend coming to pickup her older sibling for daycare.

An online donation account set up seeking assistance with unexpected expenses for the family brought in $28,000 worth of donations in a matter of days, according to KING5 writer Natalie Swaby.

“The Johnson family knows their town is feeling their heartbreak, and they say thank you for the support,” Swaby writes.

    I can’t even imagine the horror you went through. As a mother, I feel a deep sense of loss and sorrow for you. I know if I were in your shoes, they would have to keep me in a straight jacket in a closet somewhere for a long time. I admire your strength and courage just to keep going. God bless you and keep you through this devastating time in your life.
