Funeral services for 17-year-old Altin Nezaj were held at the F. Ruggiero & Sons Funeral Home in Yonkers


A wake took place at the funeral home on Tuesday and dozens came out to remember the Pearl River High School football and wrestling star.

Family members were grateful for the strong show of support as they mourn a devastating loss.

In addition to the emotional support the family is receiving, classmates of Altin started a GoFundMe which has raised $30,000 in just 24 hours.

Nezaj and two other teenagers were involved in a crash on Route 304 in Pearl River.

Their Porsche SUV collided with a Volkswagen Jetta, and the Porsche plunged off the overpass landing upside down on the train tracks below and burst into flames.

Altin and another passenger, 15-year-old Saniha Cekic of Brooklyn, were both killed.

Hundreds of loved ones also gathered to say their final goodbyes to Cekic in Astoria.

The driver, 17-year-old Aisha Radoncic, also a student at Pearl River High School, remains hospitalized and is listed in good condition.

The driver of the Jetta was not injured and police are still investigating the cause of the crash.

They do not believe drugs or alcohol were a factor.

The tributes continue for the teen this weekend.

Nezaj’s high school will honor him, and members of the community will be wearing his football jersey’s number of 71.
