In Loving Memory of Blake Bozeman
Hello, my name is Evan Marbury and I am raising money for the family of Blake Bozeman.
On Saturday, September 24, Blake was senselessly killed while at a bar in Washington DC celebrating his friend’s birthday.
Blake was many things to many people and played a pivotal role in the lives of everyone he met. He was a star athlete at Morgan State, a dedicated member of his community where he volunteered his time, and an award-winning Realtor who helped a number of people reach their goals of homeownership. But he was most proud of the titles of Father and Husband. Blake had three beautiful children and had just gotten married to the love of his life on July 13th of this year. (more…)
