The
Linda Woo Memorial Fund
Posted
May 24, 2008
On the morning of May 16th, 2008, beloved
Kyung-Sook "Linda" Woo, 63, who owned the Eden Dry Cleaners
at 10th Avenue and Windsor Place in Windsor Terrace, was found dead
in her store. Mrs. Woo had owned the shop for years after moving
here from Korea and used to live across the street with her family
before moving to Queens. Jamal Winter, 22, is being held without
bail in connection with the death. He was arraigned on first and
second degree murder charges and first degree robbery. At the time
of this tragedy, Winter was out on bail on another robbery case
and was scheduled to go on trial for that case in June.
Thanks
to Robert Bello Landscaping for donating the tree,
to The NYC Parks Department for arranging a speedy
tree planting, and to Clieve Christian and the Prospect
Park Commerce Bank for generously helping set up the Linda
Woo Memorial Fund. The fund will pay for a plaque to be placed under
the tree and for a fence to enclose the tree's base. After these
items are paid for, any additional funds will be given to Mrs. Woo's
family to use at their discretion.
There are several
ways to contribute to the fund:
1) Checks can be made out to the Linda Woo Memorial Fund, placed
in an envelope marked "Memorial Fund" and dropped in the
mail slots of either 243 Windsor Place- beginning Tuesday May 27th,
or 18 Reeve Place- beginning immediately.
2) Checks can be made out to the Linda Woo Memorial Fund and mailed
