FAIRMONT, N.C.--Funeral services are being held for the second of two Robeson County teenagers killed in a car crash last week.

Nokolma Hunt and Tyreke Addison died Monday night when the car they were in ran off Highway 41 in Fairmont and hit a tree.

A funeral service will be held for Addison in the gym at Fairmont High School Sunday afternoon.

Saturday mourners packed the gym for Hunt's funeral services.

One of his former teachers spoke about the terrible loss for the community.

"Once we go into the new 2012-2013 school year, it's gonna be very, very hard for a lot of us. The teachers, the staff, and the students. And it's gonna be our job to make sure they continue to stay strong, and that we continue to keep each other lifted up," said teacher Kevin Hunt.

Three other people were injured in the accident.
