13th Annual Gladys Ricart and Victims of Domestic Violence Memorial Walk, Brides' March, 2013.
Sign reads, "Domestic violence is a crime," in Spanish. This annual event began in 2001 to remember Gladys Ricart who, on September 26, 1999, was murdered by her abusive, former boyfriend on the day she was to marry her fiance. The march also mourns and memorializes the many other victims whose lives have been taken as a result of domestic violence related incidents. The march also serves to raise awareness of domestic violence and send the message that the community will no longer condone it.
