Justice for Asli: Support Her Memorial

On the morning of Nov. 17th, I got a visit from detectives of the 115th precinct informing me that my sister Asli was in Elmhurst Hospital with a severe head injury. This crushed my soul, but still, I remained positive and optimistic despite what I was told. Life hit hard 3 days later on November 20th when she was pronounced dead. At 48 years old, we lost her too soon. This has come as a shock to all who knew her. We would like to see the ongoing police investigation through and justice served.

We look to the generosity of family, friends, and strangers to aid us in this time of despair as we are unprepared for this tragedy. It means everything to us to say goodbye properly. I appreciate all those reaching out asking how they can help. This is how you can help us and Asli. With your support, we can honor my sister's memory and put her eternal soul to rest. We are asking for funds to aid in legal fees and to give Asli the memorial service she deserves. This is the reason for our GoFundMe page.

The light that was Asli's life had an extensive reach. Asli was born on September 29, 1976. From her days as a teacher to her time with children as a nanny, Asli touched the hearts of many. She later became a greatly successful real estate broker, and even though her dream of owning her own real estate agency remained unrealized, her contributions were generous and many.
