Downstairs Neighbor

Kingston, New York

My neighbor is being evicted and I feel so sad. She is in her late 70's and in a rehab in Brooklyn, NY. Her grandaughter was suppose to bring her rent to the office, but she is young and apparently very irresponsible. I notified her, daughter about the notice on the door and someone took some things out but left the rest. I hate to see her belongings being thrown out, which is what they will do here very soon. We got along so well. I have to sadly write that my downstairs neighbor Christine passed away in April a few weeks shy of her 76th birthday. RIP my friend.

That is not right to threw an older person out like that.

She and I have been friends for over 15 years. I watched her grandkids grow up. Simply sad.

To lose your home at any age is awful, but it seems worse at this lady's age.

I think her family has come to an agreement with management. I am hoping her belongings are removed by her family in a decent way. She is staying with family now, so she will be ok.

That's really sad. It doesn't seem right to evict someone of that age. I hope that she is able to find somewhere to live.

How awful and her granddaughter should be ashamed of herself as her grandmother is in a rehab in Brooklyn so she must be ill. I hate to see this happening to a lady of her age.
