L.E.S. Jewels R.I.P.

I was walking by Tompkins Square Park this past Saturday, when I saw this, at the entrance of Avenue A and East 9th Street:

L.E.S. Jewels R.I.P.

Lower East Side Jewels was notorious for drinking, taking drugs, and fighting. When he died, one person commented on another blog:

Surprised to hear about LES Jewels. Never said a word to him but liked how he never said a word to me either.

From there to here, from here to there, memorials are everywhere… in the East Village Today!
