NY memorial for Nicole duFresne tonight

words cannot describe the incredible tragedy of Nicole duFresne's death. on the corner where she was murdered a street side memorial has been erected to honor Nicole and give people a small way to express their deep grief and condolences. last night the majority of people spending time there - thinking about Nicole, reading the memorials and offering prayers, were locals. especially a lot of young teens coming by. there were crowds at times and as the people flowed and changed the mood remained deeply somber and heartfelt. the air was thick with sadness, shock, and shame. the look of despair in the eyes of the kids brought us to tears. a horrible tragedy that has shaken the community and the loss of her beautiful spirit has devastated the world.

we learned today that there will be a memorial for Nicole this evening in the Lower East Side:

"A memorial service is being held here in New York for Nicole this Thursday, February 3rd, at 4pm, at the Angel Orensanz Foundation Center for the Arts, located at 172 Norfolk Street."

the Nicole duFresne Memorial Scholarship has been set up by the family and is accepting donations
