On July 8, Aileen McKay-Dalton was riding her Vespa when she was struck and killed by an SUV at the corner of DeKalb and Clinton Avenues in Fort Greene. Many in our neighborhood knew her, or knew of her, as a mother of three children at Brooklyn Heights Montessori. We at BococaLand join the Montessori and Fort Greene communities in mourning her passing and send our condolences to her husband and children. There will be a candlelight vigil for Aileen this evening (Wednesday) at the intersection where the accident occurred.
