In Loving Memory of Demitri McKay
The Queens community is united in grief as it mourns the tragic and untimely loss of Demitri McKay, 29, of Queens Village, whose life was taken far too soon in a devastating shooting early Tuesday morning, March 24, 2026, in Kew Gardens.
Demitri’s passing has left a deep and painful void in the hearts of his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him. At just 29 years old, he had so much life ahead of him—dreams to pursue, memories to create, and love to share. That future was tragically cut short, leaving behind sorrow that words can scarcely express.
Known to those close to him as kind-hearted, vibrant, and full of life, Demitri made a lasting impression wherever he went. His presence brought warmth, his laughter lifted spirits, and his absence is now deeply felt by a community struggling to come to terms with such a heartbreaking loss.
As loved ones gather to remember and honor Demitri, they hold tightly to the memories that defined his life—the moments of joy, the bonds of friendship, and the love he gave so freely. Though his time on earth was far too brief, the impact he made will never be forgotten.
During this incredibly difficult time, our thoughts and prayers are with Demitri’s family and friends. May they find comfort in one another, strength in their shared love, and peace in the memories that will forever keep his spirit alive.
May Demitri McKay rest in eternal peace, and may his light continue to shine in the hearts of those who loved him.
