Gregory Gillaspy Funeral n Family

My Father was hit and killed by a suspected drunk driver while out for his regular nightly walk he leaves behind a wife and 5 adult children five grand children and two great grand children. He touched the lives of everyone who knew him he was beyond active in the community and did everything and then some he could to help Veterans. A Vietnam war veteran known for working to honor the military and pushing to add “In God We Trust” to city council chamber walls thru out California he spearheaded a campaign to make Yorba Linda a “red shirt city” in 2013. The move honors veterans and deployed personnel by wearing red every Friday. The tradition dates to World War II and is one Gillaspy, a U.S. Navy veteran, took to the Yorba Linda City Council, which unanimously approved it. My Dad did all he could for the Community and Veterans now we need your help to make sure he is taken care no gesture is to small or to large this sis a trying time and all help is greatly appreciated

I'm looking up Jody Guerrero's status .unable to get an update as to whether ir not he was re arrested and charged eventually, after being released on April 12th, 3 days after he killed Mr Gillaspy. Presumably they released him with no bail while the DA was building the case. As I said on April 13th why nobody saw this killer as a flight risk baffles me. Lord knows.if he hightailed it to Mexico he will never return north. I will continue looking for current status on this POS
