A convoy of big trucks took part in a funeral procession to pay tribute to a 3-year-old boy who recently died.
His situation was known even, to Monster Jam, who were going to have him as a guest for the World Finals at Sam Boyd Stadium in Las Vegas due to the friends at the Make-A-Wish America foundation https://www.facebook.com/MonsterJam/posts/10153524964635833:0
ABC station KNXV-TV in Phoenix reports that more than 100 trucks - including fire engines, vintage military vehicles and semis - went through the city of Mesa Friday afternoon.
It was all for Elijah Steffen, who died hours after Make a Wish and Monster Jam learned of his wish. He was a fan of big trucks but never had the chance to attend a monster truck rally in Las Vegas, the disease had acted faster than people responding to his request even could.
The hour-long procession concluded at the Mountain View Funeral Home and Cemetery.
