Cory "Ace" Crowe's story didn't end when his life was taken in 2014. Instead, his mother was given a choice: give up or devote herself to making his loss mean something. For Rose, it was no choice at all. In starting the ACE Project she found her purpose in working towards the elimination of gun violence in the West Louisville community, to great success.
In her words, she was called to this work. And Cory is cheering her on every step of the way.
