A family of three from Marietta, including their 7-year-old daughter, were killed in a car crash in east Georgia last week.
They were traveling in a Chevrolet Malibu along I-20 in Taliaferro County on June 11 when the car left the road near the Crawfordville/Sparta exit around 3:30 p.m., according to the Georgia State Patrol. The Chevy hit a tree head-on and burst into flames.
All three occupants of the vehicle died, authorities said. They were identified as 36-year-old Chanece Samuel, 29-year-old John Parker and their 7-year-old Bryanna Brewster.
Samuel was driving at the time of the wreck, according to an accident report.
Parker’s family told Channel 2 Action News the 29-year-old had a brutal honesty and a way of making friends wherever he went.
His mother, Nora George, told the news station her son and Samuel had been engaged for three years and described Brewster as a “head-strong little girl” who was also a daddy’s girl.
“She loved to ride her bike and scooter and travel with her mom and dad,” George told the news station.
The cause of the crash is still under investigation.
