“He was saying he doesn’t regret his service to the Navy, but he always wanted to be home with his family in case something like this happened,” said his little brother.
Fellow service members said they were just with him at Dobbins ARB over the weekend for monthly duty.
Family said he did drive for Uber at times, but they are not sure if he was at work when someone shot him in Stone Mountain.
Police have not said if they believe it was targeted or if a stray bullet hit him.
Now, the family is working to come up with the funds to pay for a second funeral.
“We already decided that, whatever it takes, we are going to come together and figure out what we have to do for him, but we weren’t expecting it now at all,” said Dajahni Estrada-Petersen.
