Leonard "Lennie" Dunn

Two men have died from injuries they received in a violent car crash in Peachtree City six days earlier.

Leonard “Lennie” Dunn of Fayetteville was pronounced dead Tuesday afternoon, according to a family member. And John Minaberry of Fayetteville died Wednesday morning, according to an online blog posting by family members.

Seconds before last Wednesday’s crash, Dunn was driving his older model Porsche Targa convertible north on Ga. Highway 74 with Minaberry in the front passenger seat. A southbound car turning left onto Aberdeen Parkway pulled into the path of Dunn’s vehicle, causing the crash, police said.

The front of Dunn’s vehicle was crushed such that the dashboard compacted significantly in towards Dunn and Minaberry.

The crash also seriously injured the driver of the other car, Melissa Painter of Fayetteville. All three victims were flown in three separate medical helicopters to hospitals for treatment.

Officials said this is the first crash in Peachtree City where three separate helicopters were needed to transport victims.

A memorial service for Minaberry will be held Sunday at 4 p.m. at Prince of Peace Lutheran Church on Ga. Highway 314 in Fayetteville.

Dunn's funeral will be held Saturday at 3 p.m. at J.F. Floyd Mortuary at 235 North Church Street in Spartanburg, S.C.; a viewing will be held from 1 to 2:30 p.m.

For Dunn's friends who can't make the funeral, a memorial service will be held Saturday, April 14 in Fayetteville at 2 p.m. at Prince of Peace Lutheran Church on Ga. Highway 314 with pastor Knox Herndon.
