Council Member Vallone Unveils
“Madeline Sershen Way” in Whitestone
On Thursday night, by candlelight, we unveiled "Madeline Sershen Way" at
Utopia Parkway and 16th Avenue.
A beloved daughter, sister, aunt and an exceptional student and young
woman, Madeline Sershen lived a brief but very bright life and was clearly
loved by so many in the Northeast Queens community.
Thank you to Olivia Sershen and Skyler Nenadich for sharing such moving
words, and to Madeline's aunt Rita Barravecchio for being a strong advocate
for positive changes to New York State’s driving laws.
I am humbled to be a part of honoring Madeline’s life in this lasting way.
