Although Memorial Day is customarily reserved for remembrances of fallen soldiers, Skipp Townsend of the 2nd Call Foundation also uses it to remember those youth lost to violence in our urban communities.
Jamiel Shaw Sr. (pictured right) lost his son in 2008 due to mistaken gang identity. May 27th is the 4th Annual Memorial Day Weekend Bowling Party, sponsored by the 2nd Call Foundation and both gentlemen joined the program to discuss the recent sentence recommendation of death for the murderer of Jamiel Shaw II and explained how one deals with grief in a long term sense after the loss of a child.
