HOUSTON — The funeral service for the mother and her three children who were killed by a suspected impaired driver was Saturday at the Community of Faith Church.
Hundreds attended to say goodbye to Porsha Branch and her three sons, King, Messiah and Drake.
All four were killed when police said 35-year-old Daniel Canada crashed into the back of their car on March 14 at the intersection of FM 2920 and Gosling Road.
Branch's vehicle was pushed into several others before catching on fire.
Porsha and one of her sons died on scene. The other two later died at nearby hospitals.
Damien House, Porsha's husband and the father to the three boys, said Porsha was a great person who was always willing to help.
"She was a down-to-earth person. She had a wonderful heart. Always helpful. A wonderful mother. She'd give you the shirt off her back. ... I'll never forget her," he said.
House said he has been having a hard time processing the death of his wife and three sons who were taken away so unexpectedly.
"She's the love of my life and it's just hard for me to see my wife and three of our kids gone," House said. "I thought it would get easier, but it just seems to get harder and harder each day."
Canada is charged with four counts of intoxication manslaughter. He's being held in jail with no bond and is expected to appear in court in May.
