A row of carved Halloween pumpkins has been set up in the skateboard park at Walnut Grove Community Park in memory of Carson Crimeni, the teen who died after he was found unconscious in the Langley park.
Surrounded by tea light candles, the array of 19 pumpkins included one with the initials B次元官网网址淐.C.B次元官网网址� and a heart.
They were arranged just above some graffiti on the skate park concrete surface that read B次元官网网址淐arsonB次元官网网址� and B次元官网网址淩IPB次元官网网址�
CarsonB次元官网网址檚 grandfather, Darrel Crimeni, called it a B次元官网网址減erfectB次元官网网址� tribute.
B次元官网网址淚t warms my heart to see it,B次元官网网址� Darrel told the Langley Advance Times.
B次元官网网址淐arson loved Halloween. He would wear the scariest costumes.B次元官网网址�
He didnB次元官网网址檛 know who was responsible for the memorial, but said a friend told him they saw B次元官网网址渟ix or eightB次元官网网址� people working on it just before the weekend.
It is the second memorial to go up at the park.
After CarsonB次元官网网址檚 death was reported, hundreds of bouquets of flowers lined the rim of the skate park, along with stuffed animals, tea light candles, cards, and messages of support written in chalk on the concrete.
It remained up until September, when it was taken down with the familyB次元官网网址檚 consent.
A Langley dad who organized a campaign to have the park renamed in memory of Carson said the new tribute is more evidence of support for a memorial.
B次元官网网址淚 think the community really feels strongly,B次元官网网址� commented Geoff McNeill, who has presented a petition to Langley Township council.
B次元官网网址淚 donB次元官网网址檛 think this is going away,B次元官网网址� McNeill added.
