My mom and nephew were killed 24 years ago by a hit and run on the Grand Concourse & Marcy Pl. The driver was never caught. 24 years later we still live with the pain and loss. Rest in Paradise sweet soul. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼😢😢😢💔💔💔
@KCA878998 father in Heaven. We lift this family up to you in prayer. We believe that you can heal and bring correction into their situation. We believe that this family will bring light and love into this community as well through their loss. We pray for heavenly peace to surround them and your love to comfort them. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.
I hope they find these degenerates that just fled and left her to die. Shame on you

I reported so often cars without license plate and no registration tags on it, parking on puplic streets and what happen ? Nothing!
