“I just want to acknowledge Damien,” said one young attendee dressed in a white BBDR hoodie, González’s clothing brand.
Alongside his mother’s family, González’s father, Rigo González, solemnly watched Monday’s proceedings. Friends of González stood by and wore necklaces honoring their friend. After embracing González’s maternal relatives, Supervisor Hillary Ronen said she was “angered” by the “senseless loss,” especially of someone who was so involved with the community.
“We’re going to do everything in our power to make sure this does not happen again, because we are tired of losing young people to gun violence in this neighborhood, in this country, everywhere,” Ronen said.
