This Comment of the Day comes from NW Neighbor who writes about Leon Young.
Last night there was a vigil for Leon on Jefferson Street NW. Very sad situation. Leon had a very tough life losing his mother to drugs and recently grandmother within the last year. His grandmother was very active in his life and was a staple. But Leon made some very tough choices later on in life and I am saddened to hear of this final outcome. There were a lot of people in Leon’s corner, but eventually we have to try our best to rise above our pain. I hope any young men or women reading this will decide today to make a different choice for their life. May the family be healed in time.
