Community rallies around Adrian kids after loss of mother and two brothers




The Adrian community is in mourning.  As reported by the Missouri State Highway Patrol, a fatality accident in Dunklin County had local ties to our close-knit town.  Tiffani (Callaway) Santana and three kids were experiencing car trouble on the shoulder of Missouri Route MM.  The parked vehicle was struck by a 2010 GMC Sierra.  Tiffani and two of her kids, Phoenix, age 10, and Jack, age 2, passed away at the scene of the accident.  Tahylar, a 7th grader this fall at Adrian Middle School, was unharmed.  Micah, age 5, was not with the family at the time of the accident.

True to the nature of Adrianites, everyone wants to know...HOW CAN WE HELP?  Below are ways you can help the Santana/Callaway family pay for funeral expenses.  
  • An account has been set up at Adrian Bank for the Santana/Callaway family 
  • Boot Block - Saturday, July 8 in Adrian, Archie, Amsterdam and Passaic

If you'd like to help collect during the Boot Block or for more information please contact DeAnna Johnston Hutton.  For more information on the Chicken Drop Fundraiser, please contact Shelli Diehl-White.
