Candle Light Vigil For Jordan McKay

October 1st, 2008 · 4 Comments · Uncategorized

I attended a bike ride and candle light vigil for to remember Jordan McKay. If you haven’t heard:

Jordan McKay, a San Francisco resident cycling home from work, was shot and killed while riding his bicycle at 1:41 am on September 17th near the corner of Cabrillo and 15th Street.

Jordan was a 23-year-old graduate of UC Santa Cruz, and a lifelong resident of the Bay Area. He worked in the field of computer modeling, and loved music, travel and bicycling.

Jordan believed in providing microloans to developing nations and his father asked for any donations to be given to the Grameen Foundation in his name . The community is still looking for information about his death and there is a $25,000 reward being offered to anyone with information.
