He did not give me any details. the odd thing about the house was that even before you looked into it there was a sense of dark and light. We need a way to remember.

He was leaving his mother's house on his bicycle going thru the neighborhood to his house when he was shot by one of two running teens. 8:30 in the eve. Lucky shot hit the big artery in the neck. (I tried to spell carotdit). So many people feel the pain of murdered frieds and family. And we still live here. What a beautiful tribute the house is.

We saw it and hope that more people see it. It's inspiring and so completely visceral. It says so much about our violent crime and also helps us deal with our collective loss from the storm. It gave us a sense of connectivity. Thanks for your personal comment. We saw it and hope that more people see it. It’s inspiring and so completely visceral.
