Roxbury has lost light. You've inspired so many of your neighbors and fellow Roxbury folk, young and seasoned. It is now on us to make sure we continue to shine your light and continue the fight to make Roxbury and the rest of Boston the best of Boston. As we continue to move forward in these hard times let us bring the fire that was Val with ever breath and every step. You will be missed but never forgotten, Long Live the Queen of Roxbury.
