Though tinged with sorrow, today’s monument restoration stands as a tribute to Conchita Concepcion Linera. Born in Tampa, Florida to hopeful immigrant parents from Asturias, Spain, her journey as a 1st-generation American was tragically cut short in 1911 at the tender age of 12.
Today's beautiful dual monument restoration honors the husband and wife duo of Hoboken, New Jersey native, Harry Howard, a successful businessman & Brooklyn born, Frances "Fannie" Walford Berry a pioneer in politics, both of whom became integral in the fabric of their community.
Today, we honor Sylvia Xiques, whose immense promise was tragically stolen in 1957 by a senseless act of domestic violence on the streets of New York.
Decades later, we carry her memory forward, refusing to let her unwritten future be forgotten.
