I came across this tragedy while reading about unresolved cases in Philadelphia, and I can't help but feel deeply for the families and friends of Alida Maria Cruz and Antorie D. Coates. It's devastating to think of the promising lives they had ahead of them, senselessly cut short. What caught my attention was the community's response—168 candles lit in Alida’s memory. Such acts of collective remembrance are so powerful. They remind us all that these victims are more than just names in a news article; they were loved, cherished, and part of a wider community that still feels their absence every day. I can't begin to imagine the pain of her family, but it's heartening to see how the community rallies to keep her spirit alive. If anyone has more information on ways to support the family or honor her memory, please share.
