Today is the sixth month anniversary of Ryo's death.
Ryo died in Queensbridge on February 21st, 2103. It was a cold day. He was struck by a patrol car and passed away on the cold concrete instantly.
The time passes by and the seasons come and go no matter how our lives are.
Now, it is summer in New York.
I saw Ryo’s family in Japan this summer. They have started to learn how to handle their feelings. It is not hard to imagine there are so many moments they cannot help to cry and they wish Ryo were there. But they were trying to switch their feelings and trying to laugh and smile from their heart, while they were preparing for the lawsuit.
However, we have to remember that the situation has not changed since the day NYPD gave the family an explanation about Ryo's death. The NYPD has not given them any updates. They still have not seen the surveillance video. They still do not know why and how Ryo had to die.

Ryo’s memorial at the accident site shows that his death is not faded there. The landlord of the share house Ryo stayed sent us the pictures of the memorial today. There are always some fresh flowers displayed and it is cleaned neatly. It reminds people who walk by the tragedy that happened there, and also that Ryo was loved.
