They took something that wasn’t just a thing,” Fiore told News 12. “They took something that was like a vehicle for healing. They took something that was therapy. It was something that helped me get through the incredible loss.”In 2017, Fiore’s coworker was murdered. She says her grief was unimaginable. A close friend gave her the bike to help with her journey through the loss.
“It was this old rickety, rusty bike that I learned how to ride on, and I could be alone on,” Fiore told the TV station. A GoFundMe account is raising money for a reward for any information leading to the motorcycle’s return. You can make a donation here.
