Visitation for Girl Killed in Highland Park Fatal Crash, Monday 2 p.m. – 9 p.m.

A visitation for the 5-year-old girl killed in a Highland Park crash will be held from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Seguin & Symonds Funeral Home, 858 Sheridan Rd., Highwood, according to Legacy.com. 

Thomas Santos de Jesus, the father of the girl, was working at Trifecta Grill in Winnetka when he received the news. 

The fatal crash occurred on Labor Day when a Lexus Coupe hit a family walking in Highland Park, killing Jaclyn Santos-Sacramento, while her mother Modesta Sacramento and younger brothers, 2 and 4 years of age, escaped with non-life threatening injuries. 

Restaurant employees and patrons stepped up during his difficult time and helped set up a memorial fund to help with expenses. 

“All of our love and prayers go out to Thomas Santos de Jesus (employee of Trifecta Grill) and his family for the tragic loss of his 5-year-old daughter Monday afternoon,” read Trifecta’s Facebook page. “An account will be set up shortly to help with hospital & funeral expenses. Xoxo.”

And later:

“All of us at Trifecta Grill, O'Neil's in Winnetka and Little Ricky's Rib Joint are sending love, hugs and peace during this difficult time,” read the updated status message, linking to Jaclyn’s memorial fund. “Click on the link below to donate to the Santos family.”
