TAMPA - An oak tree will be planted Friday morning at Mort Elementary School to honor 7-year-old Tatum Johnson, who died in February after being hit by a car near her home in Lutz.
Johnson's family and classmates are expected to attend the ceremony, a Hillsborough County School District news release states.
Johnson, a Mort first-grader, was struck by a neighbor's car Feb. 8 while she played on a dirt road near her home off East 148th Avenue, Hillsborough County sheriff's deputies said.
She died at University Community Hospital.
The oak tree, to be planted at 9 a.m. Friday, was donated by Sunrise Landscaping of Tampa.
