Just days after a beloved father from Northern Westchester was killed in a crash caused in the region by an alleged drunk driver that also injured his young son, a community has already raised thousands to support his family.
Cortlandt Manor resident Joe Stubblefield, age 52, was killed in a crash in Putnam County on Saturday, Nov. 11 around 9:45 p.m. on Route 9 near Stone Ridge Road, according to the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office.
According to authorities, he had been driving south when a car driven by 56-year-old Dutchess County resident Marcos Martinez of Hopewell Junction crossed into his lane and struck his vehicle head-on. Stubblefield was pronounced dead at the scene and his 7-year-old son who had been in the car with him was hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries.
Now, in the days since the terrible crash, a GoFundMe page has been started by a friend of Stubblefield’s family, Dana Heffernan, who said that the 52-year-old “was the best son, father, brother, cousin, uncle, nephew, friend that anyone could ever ask for.”
