Iseut reports as Kenneth Rackley's family and friends gather on Wednesday to bury him, a local businessman who knew the 19-year-old since he was a little boy is trying to raise money to pay for his funeral.
Rackley was shot to death on July 24. Dan Cruz of the Cruz Companies writes:
... I have known Kenny for over 15 years and know him to be a "great" kid and an "exceptional" human being, who happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. The family does not have insurance nor the funds to pay for his funeral services. ...
The Kenneth Rackley Memorial Fund has been established at Citizens Bank in Dudley Square.
