The GoFundMe campaign states:
“Holt Francis lost his wife, Karen Stewart-Francis, their two daughters, 2-year old Kylie and 7-year old Keleisha, along with their neice, 19-year old Shawntay Young, in a December 28th fire in the Bronx.
Holt is currently on life support, and the prognosis is dim.
Their family would like to take their loved ones back home to Jamaica for a homegoing funeral service, and needs assistance for the cost of transporting the bodies home, and burying them in Jamaica.”
