This young man was my neighbor and although I didn’t know him past a neighborly hello, he was very close to many special people in my life here in Hoboken.

Chris Garcia died for absolutely no reason; a senseless act of violence, murdered when he tried to break up a fight that didn’t originate with him. Yet another promising young man taken by gun violence, this time right here in Hoboken.

Chris was an intelligent entrepreneur and his loyalty to our Hoboken community ran deep as you may learn in the news videos. Chris's family along with Lynese, will be hosting an event in the near future, selling the merchandise from his Street Friends Clothing Line Company to honor his greatness and legacy.

Until that event is held, I am asking our community to help ease the burdens Chris's family is experiencing.

Peace, thanks & love,

Lisa
