The posters dedicated to the lives lost will travel to Uvalde in the coming days
Many people watching the tragedy and heartbreak unfold in Uvalde feel compelled to do something. In Fort Worth, the community will get the chance to send words of support to the families whose lives have been forever changed.
Words have power. And at the DFW Arlington National Funeral home, people will have an opportunity to share, in their own words, messages of support. Those words will then travel some five hours to reach the ones who need them most. “We’re allowing the public to come by and sign the posters. That way once they sign the posters, we are going to be able to bring them to Uvalde and present them to the funeral home so they can present them to the families,” said Derrick Johnson, Manager of Operations at DFW National Funeral Home.
Derrick Johnson has been in touch with the funeral home directors in Uvalde offering a hand and even sending a hearse from the Fort Worth Funeral Home should someone need it.Download NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth
