A newlywed’s world was turned upside down when her husband and 1-year-old daughter lost their lives in a tragic head-on collision as they were coming back from their honeymoon.

“Macey, Hunter, and Oakleigh were involved in a devastating car accident yesterday while making their way home from their honeymoon in Pigeon Forge,” shared Leigh Ann Payne-Weisser, Macey’s mother, on Facebook.

She added that her daughter was taken to the burn unit at the University of Louisville Hospital to be treated for her injuries.

“Hunter and Oakleigh are now with our Lord and Savior. Please keep Macey and our families lifted in prayer,” she wrote.

The couple’s 1-year-old daughter was remembered as having a smile “like a ray of sunshine” that reflected her “sassy personality.”

Friends and family have launched several fundraisers to help Macey with expenses.

Police said Joseph Maynard, 48, of Owensboro, the driver of the F-150, also died at the scene.
