This Comment of the Day comes from Tina, who wrote about DaShawn Hammonds, who died after being shot in an alley on the 1200 block of Simms Place in Northeast D.C. on July 6.
This hurts my heart so bad. I grew up with Dashawn. I remember when I went to college and would talk to my sister and DaShawn would say you sound so educated. I miss your smile and you were a good father , son, lover, friend to all who knew him. It hurts because I haven’t seen you in years . R.I.P. Dashawn I promise I will watch over sis and nephew.
