  • Sandeep Singh Cheema dies in head on semi trailer collision
When Sandeep left home for work, he told his daughters Sargun and Mehar, 6 and 2, and his wife Manjeet that he would be back. But that would not be the case.
 
Sandeep Singh Cheema, 41, a beloved father and husband, passed away as a result of a horrific head-on collision that occurred on July 16th on Hwy 17, when a speeding semi-trailer drove through a red light as Sandeep was about to turn into his workplace to park his semi-trailer truck for the night and head home to his wife and daughters.
 
Sandeep was one turn away from finishing his shift, and reuniting with his family.
 
 A go fund me has been set up for Sandeep. 
 
Over $50,000 has been raised since the fundraiser was started and the money will be given to Cheema's widow.
