$100,000 raised for college student who lost his mother, father and sister in a car crash on the Parkway

A GoFundMe campaign for the surviving child of a father and mother who died along with their daughter in a tragic car crash Saturday night has raised more than $100,000 as of Tuesday evening.

The GoFundMe campaign was started by Max Dryerman, the son of Michele and David Dryerman, both 54, of Woodcliff Lake and brother of Brooke Dryerman, 17, the GoFundMe campaign said. All three of Max Dryerman's family members were killed in a crash Saturday night while traveling north on the Garden State Parkway, authorities said.

“Donations will benefit Max as he returns to college, as well as charities of Max's choosing,” the fundraiser's description said. Social media posts said Dryerman is a 19-year-old engineering student at Drexel University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Max Dryerman did not immediately respond to a message left for him Tuesday afternoon.

The accident occurred at about 11:55 p.m. on the northbound side of the Garden State Parkway near Woodbridge when David Dryerman's car veered off the left side of the road and struck a railing, a sign and a concrete bridge pillar, according to authorities.

The cause of the crash is still being investigated.

On Sunday morning, Woodcliff Lake Mayor Carlos A. Rendo said in a Facebook post that he had just received news of the crash that killed the Dryermans and ordered the borough's flags to be flown at half-staff.

“I am in shock. Please pray for the family,” Rendo wrote in the post. Rendo reposted the GoFundMe campaign for Max Dryerman on Tuesday, adding that some community members have suggested donating a bench to be placed in a park in honor of the family.

A vigil for the family was reportedly held Sunday evening at the Valley Chabad in Woodcliff Lake.

The funeral service for Michele, David and Brooke took place on Tuesday at Temple Emmanuel in Pascack Valley.
