In order to raise money for the high school senior’s funeral after their passing, Wasserman’s family set up a GoFundMe campaign. As of this writing, more than $8,500 has been contributed.
The students were 18, according to the Florida Highway Patrol, although Wasserman’s GoFundMe page stated that she was 17 when she passed away.
“We are heartbroken to share the devastating loss of Hannah Wasserman, who tragically passed away in a car accident while on spring break in Florida,” the bio stated.
“Hannah was just 17 years old—a bright light taken far too soon.”
It went on: “Hannah was genuinely unique: kind, kind, and constantly watching out for others. She was able to make everyone feel heard, loved, and seen.
Hannah demonstrated kindness and consideration whether it was for a buddy in need, a classmate going through a difficult moment, or a complete stranger in need of a smile.
