"He wanted to go to Maine, he wanted a place by the coast. His dream of Maine came to an end right over there," Ken said, gesturing to the intersection of Tower Street and Hyde Park Avenue.
"We are here today to provide comfort, and insist upon change," organizer Benjamin Siegel said during the vigil.
"His death prompted advocates to launch a petition asking local officials to enact safety measures on Hyde Park Avenue with the goal of protecting pedestrians."
"He loved Jamaica Plain, and he loved JP Licks," Ken told the crowd, sharing a memory of his brother.
