Lingzi Lu’s parents write open letter to Boston community
In an open letter published by The Boston Globe on Thursday, the parents of Lingzi Lu thanked all those in the Boston community and beyond who supported them since their only daughter’s death. Lu, a 23-year-old Chinese transfer student at Boston University, was one of the four people killed in the Boston Marathon bombings and ensuing events.
Lu’s family said they wanted to thank everyone who responded on that tragic day two years ago, as well as all those who have reached out to support them since.
During the darkest days and nights since the passing of our dear daughter Lingzi, we have been gifted with an unending river of love and kindness from the Boston community and people from all over the world. We are humbled and forever grateful for your continued generosity, support, and encouragement.
[…]
We know now more than ever that her spirit is alive and well. Our everlasting hope is that her dream continues to live on in all those who dream big dreams and have the opportunity to make the world a more peaceful and better place.
