The descendants were identified as Soren Dixon, Jack Nelson and Krysta Tsukahara.
Hundreds gathered in Piedmont Friday night for a vigil honoring the victims.
“I’m moved by the way our small community has come together to offer solace to these families, and to one another, during a time of unimaginable loss,” said Piedmont Mayor Jen Cavenaugh. “The outpouring of support on display at Thursday’s Turkey Trot and Friday’s evening vigil was tremendous. Now, we must respect the wishes of the victims’ families to grieve privately.”
In a statement provided by Dixon’s family, he was known for his “infectious smile” and love for his love of family and friends.
Nelson’s family described him, in a statement, as “full of life and made a lasting impact on people through his kindness and joy.”
Tsukahara was a sophomore at the Savannah College of Art and Design. In a statement released by her family, she was known for “her kind and sensitive heart.”
The fiery crash occurred around 3 a.m. on Wednesday on Hampton Road. The front end of the Cybertruck partially wrapped around the tree, and the vehicle fully burned.
One person did survive the crash. He suffered severe burns and underwent surgery. His current condition is unknown.
