Family of the nursing students who were killed in Uber Crash Award scholarships to nurse graduates in their name

Abatington, Pa. – – A tragedy unfolded New Year's Eve as a young woman who was killed at the end of the nursing school at the end of the completion of the hospital when he drove as a passenger in a Uber in Philadelphia.

A family with a broken heart:

“We also have a diploma in honor of Kiyonna. I know that she would have graduated today”

The parents of Kiyonna Sutton received their diploma in the nursing school on Thursday evening. Kiyonna, a top student in her teaching school, did not live to run with her classmates at closing ceremony on Thursday evening.

Stephanie Hillhouse, Kiyonna's grandmother, noticed: “She did everything right. Go to school, worked hard. Bought a new house in December, only a year of anniversary.

The background story:

Kiyonna was killed New Year's Eve when she thought it was safer to hire an Uber driver to celebrate with friends.

This was the opposite when the Uber car fell into the back of the parked tractor in the Ogontz Avenue on the way to meeting friends.

And on Thursday evening, when other proud parents and families cheered the graduates, Kiyonna's family thought that they should have done the same thing.

What you say:

“We have to take it up, not just make a tragedy, but also make it a good situation, because something came out. We gave two scholarships in their name,” said Calvin Sutton, Kiyonna's father.

In order to keep the name and memory of Kiyonna, her parents created scholarships in their name, two Kiyonna scholarships in the amount of 1,000 US dollars award two of the students here and plan to do this from now on every year.

“It is difficult for both of us because we wanted her to be here today,” said Sutton to the graduates.

“We just hope that you will promote your care career and I wish you all the luck,” said Yvonne Isley, Kiyonna's mother.

Sutton continued: “We will continue to give awards in your name, in your honor and we want you to go out and just do your thing.

“We made ourselves proud. There is no day when I had something negative. She never did anything wrong. She was perfect, almost perfect,” said Hillhouse.
