James Wehr<\/a>‘s crash victim, Lexi Kramer<\/a>, will be honored at a memorial in Florida next month.<\/p>\n

Lexi’s sister, Gracie, shared the details on Instagram Friday … announcing a celebration of life for October 9 in Lakeland, Florida.<\/p>\n

\"TMZ\"<\/p>\n

Gracie says the event will be a chance for Lexi’s loved ones to celebrate her life and cherish their memories. She adds that all of Lexi’s friends and family are welcome … but asks the media to stay away out of respect for everyone who is grieving.<\/p>\n

As we reported … Lexi and James died<\/a> in a fiery car crash over the weekend after cops say James lost control of his 2019 McLaren.<\/p>\n

TMZ obtained video<\/a> showing the car hit a wet spot in the road, attempted to slow down, and then suddenly veered into a nearby tree. The vehicle exploded on impact, sending a massive fireball and mushroom cloud into the air.<\/p>\n

James’ family has referred to Lexi as his “friend” while announcing plans to honor both<\/a> of them at the South OC Cars and Coffee meetup he co-founded with his father, Simon Wehr.<\/p>\n

\"TMZ\"<\/p>\n

However, Lexi’s family has claimed James flew her to California and told her he was getting a divorce from his wife, Emma … though that apparently was not the case.<\/p>\n

James’ wife, Emma, has since hired<\/a> an accident attorney following the crash.<\/p>\n
