Welcome to

IN MEMORY OF GEORGE FLOYD from Claudia Sampson, Riverbay Fund President

Lonnie Dawson and I felt the need to do something special by taking a stand with Co-op City to acknowledge George Floyd. The inhumanity and total disregard for his precious life have truly changed the world and inspired us to honor him with this small tribute. Rest In Peace George.
