Rodriguez's wife was injured in the crash, and is being treated at Massachusetts General Hospital.
The GoFundMe page set up by a family member says Irma Rodriguez suffered three cracked ribs, a bruised lung, and several cuts and bruises. She is expected to recover.
The family said the couple had just arrived in Boston for a nine-day vacation Wednesday.
They say any donations will be used for medical expenses and to bring Rodriguez's body home to El Paso.
As of Thursday morning, the page had raised $800 of the family's $5,000 goal.
