a bike memorial for a neighbor

Debra Prokop lived in our neighborhood. she was stuck by a car and killed at Ave G & 44th on may 20, 2001. since her death, many have kept the spray-painted memorial for her fresh.

I didn't know her. she was a gardener for several neighbors and a part of our community. and she was a bike commuter. Last year a fellow neighbor and cyclist, George Wyche, Greg and myself re-spray painted the bike memorial where Debra Prokop was hit and killed on her bike in Hyde Park. We are going to be spraying it again tomorrow, Saturday at 11am. Please join us if you like or are in the neighborhood. Ave. G & 44th.

Here is a short little video of our spray last year.
