Let's help lighten the load for Bones, Karen, Ryan and Sarah and come together so they can keep Trenton's Ranger in the family.

Tapawera, Tasman

Trenton was recently killed in a tragic accident and everyone who loved him is struggling to come to terms with this unmeasurable loss. He loved his ute and now the Jones whānau wants to be sure his treasured Ranger stays in the family. The stress associated with the additional cost of taking over the payments is the last thing we want the family worried about. We can work together to ease that strain and stress on them by helping however you can.

"Trenton was always talking about rangers and he had named owning one as a goal of his... a Raptor F250 in fact! Trenton was always determined and recently brought a 2018 Ford Ranger, and he LOVED it! He worked hard everyday to pay it off. When he did a job, he did it well.

Trenton will always be in my heart and was always a great brother to me. He was doing so well and was definitely working towards his goal of owning a Raptor. He was taken from us too early and too young xx." -Sarah Jones

Bones and I just want to thank everyone for their kind donations and support for us at this heartbreaking time. This has given us a buffer to get help with Trenton’s payments on his Ute while we sort out trying to sell my car and transfer all the paperwork over into our name. Time feels like it is standing still yet tomorrow will be 6 weeks since Trenton passed. Miss him every day. Love and thanks to everybody for your wonderful support xx
