So, I spoke with the victim's daughter this afternoon and the family is in need of financial help with the funeral. The victim's daughter, Sandra, lost her 3 year old in February and the family is going through alot today - 2 significant losses in the past 7 months. She said that all monetary donations would be greatly appreciated to help with the burial. So, please help and show your support for a neighbor! Sandra requested that I post her address and noted that the family will be home today, Sept. 5th, to accept donations in person or you may choose to send it via snail mail: All checks should be made out to the victim's wife, "Dora Nowillo" Dora Nowillo 39-24 Crescent Street Long Island City, NY 11101 If you would like to reach out to Sandra to help out in any other way, feel free to send me a message through Gothamist and I would be happy to share her contact information.

Our warmest blessings to you, the Nowillo Khan family, My god you all have been through so much this year. Your father, Nick, now Joins his grandchild, who is so missed and I am sure that they both watch over your family. Nick is a hero in my eyes. It is so sad, such a brave act, ended in such cruelty. Our Love and Blessing, the Weaver Family.

If the woman felt threatened, she should have called the police. Mr Nowillo was 66 years old and even if he was fit how easily could he ward off a much younger man who might have been crazy.
