Young lives lost to violence in Newburgh
Each name eventually fades into the subconscious of Newburgh's tragic character. But those who have been slain remain close for a growing number of relatives and friends. The mourners struggle in small and personal ways to remember their lost loved ones. They study pictures of smiling boys and regret the scent fading from a murdered son's T-shirts. Some dread the holidays.

1. I assume we are talking about Newburgh, New York...

I used to live and work there back in the 70's and it was in decline even back then.
I can't imagine what's it's like today.

Oh, well it's only black people who live there so who gives a fuck anyway.
