According to the New York Daily News, an alleged drunken driver in a pickup truck struck Burton in Dayton, Ohio. Burton's car crashed into a tree, killing her and critically injuring her 14-month-old son, Orion, who was in the back seat.

"I was furious that the one I couldn't get my hands on took my daughter," Shragal told WXIN.

"I'm blessed that the last words I said to my daughter were, 'I love you, Sunshine,' and she said, 'I love you too, Daddy,'" he told WXIN.

GoFundMe page has been started to collect donations for the family. Click here to learn more.
