Twenty-year-old Lindy Rae Simmons, 17-year-old Christopher Simmons and 15-year-old Kamryn Simmons were killed in the crash.
An online fundraiser had brought in $759,199 as of Dec. 29 — more than its $500,000 goal — for a Louisiana family that lost three children in a wrong-way crash on Interstate 49.
"The outpouring of love and support is just astonishing," DeRouen wrote in a Tuesday post on Facebook. "I am in awe of how God is showing up during this storm. My mom is so worried about returning to work — of course — and I was trying to explain to her that she REALLY won’t have to worry about that for a long time. She just kept asking if it — the GoFundMe — was real. Guys, just LOOK at how amazing this campaign is.
Investigators took toxicology samples from Lundy and Lindy Rae Simmons, who was driving the SUV with the family members. Results are still pending and the crash remains under investigation, Trooper Thomas Gossen, spokesperson for Louisiana State Police, said.
