The driver of the tow truck was not in the vehicle at the time of the collision and was not injured, the station reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAll the members of the Sanford community are greatly saddened by the tragic news of the passing of Augie Gonzalez and his two precious daughters,&#8221; said Judith Kelley, dean of the school, in a Facebook post. &#8220;Augie was an exemplary student, deeply engaged with life in our school, and it was with great pride that we congratulated him and his family on his graduation just two weeks ago when he was accompanied by his wife Melissa and their children. Our thoughts go out to his family during this trying time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gonzalez\u2019s wife, Melissa Gonzalez, and their newborn son, Gabriel, were in the air on a flight to Colorado Springs when the accident occurred, the fundraising page stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fundraising initiative was started by friends of the family who knew Melissa through her previous job as an elementary school teacher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gonzalez was commissioned into the Army in August 2006 through the ROTC program at Rutgers University, according to his <a href=\"https:\/\/ctc.usma.edu\/scholars\/major-agustin-m-gonzalez\/\" target=_blank>biography <\/a>on West Point\u2019s CTC website. His first assignment was as a rifle platoon leader with the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After completing the Maneuver Captain\u2019s Career Course, Gonzalez took command of Charlie and then Headquarters Company, 2nd Battalion, 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He also would serve as Delta Company commander at 3rd Ranger Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gonzalez deployed four times in support of Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Resolute Support, and once to the Republic of Korea as the commander of a special operations task force, his biography states.
