OUR GABBY

  • Gabriella Boyd Foundation

I was born on July 26, 2015. Two days before my daddy’s birthday. He always said “2015 I got my greatest birthday present, and it was given to me in a hospital.” However, shortly after July, I would not see him again until October. Family Court petitions, accusations, Order of Protections, unfit Judges and lawyers resulted in me spending only 2 days a week for 9 hours a day with my Father, grandparents and the rest of my family.

Gabriella Boyd was an innocent victim, and just another statistic in the bias backwards and outdated New York State Family Court System. Despite her father’s efforts to show the court that it was in the best interest of Gabriella that she be with him.

Big brown eyes and a big bright smile. Gabriella, Gabby, Gabs, Ladybug or Mama was sure to put a smile on your face. She was a very happy little girl. Outgoing, independent, fearless, smart, clever, sneaky and a great listener. She understood a lot more than people thought she did. 

She would make an attempt to try anything from taking on a new obstacle on the playground, to learning to pronounce a new letter or word. She loved dogs, painting and drawing, playing soccer and making play dough meatballs with Nanny. She liked music, and dancing and playing the guitar with Pappy. She enjoyed walks around the park with Daddy and RoRo and feeding the geese and the ducks. She had a special bond with Uncle Joe and Aunt Ashley where she felt safe even when Uncle Joe chased her around the house and threw her up in the air, it was built on trust and love. Gabriella liked trucks and motorcycles, books, macaroni and cheese, and playing with her big cousins. 

Mama loved to bake cookies and cupcakes, all while licking the frosting from her fingers. She helped Dada make pancakes for breakfast every Saturday at 9:30am, where she would follow it up with cheerios and of course her Sippy cup of water. Gabby loved to help, she would always set the table, pretend to cook, and if she really liked you, she would share. Gabriella liked her naps, she liked to learn, and she liked riding in the car. Holidays were special, she loved the snow and making snowman and being pulled in the sled. She was a very observant and particular little girl who loved Mickey Mouse and her two favorite dogs, Rolly and Bingo. That’s who this beautiful little Angel was and will always be and so much more!

We Love & miss you so much

Its taken me since yesterday to make this post, this post that never gets any easier.Today it's been 5 years since we all lost the biggest piece of our hearts, 5 years since we have seen your smile, 5 years that we have been able to hold you in our arms and tell you how much we love you! In those 5 years, it still feels like yesterday when I got the call from Daddy telling me you were gone, it feels like yesterday this nightmare started, one we can't seem to wakeup from and be able to hold you again.I will always ask myself why? Why could The Village of Mamaroneck Police Department have taken you out of harm's way? Did they honestly expect a 2.5 year old defend herself off of that monster? How ignorant can you be? When multiple people were telling you she was in danger, when you knew very well who you were dealing with since you were there 2x before? Do you not have kids? Are you not an uncle? A grandfather? What happened to protect and serve? That go out the window too? While all those involved who did NOTHING to save her have the opportunity to hug their kids, nieces/nephews, grandkids, watch the grow.....we are left with just a memory of a beautiful little girl who deserved more than what you did for her which was absolutely nothing. You wear your badge proudly, you walk into a government building proudly....proud of what? Of the innocent life you failed? Your as guilty as the scum that is locked up. Know this we will NOT give up, will continue our fight for our little girl until everyone involved is held accountable!
WE WILL CONTINUE TO BE HER VOICE, AND HER VOICE WILL BE HEARD!!!!!!I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART MY BEAUTIFUL LADYBUG, I know I will never understand why, but what I do know is I am the luckiest person in the world to be able to call you my little girl, Daddy and I will fight for you, I hope we are making you proud everyday. I miss your smile, I miss your hugs, I will cherish the day you called me RoRo. I will look for you in the clouds, I smile when I see a ladybug, I know your always by our side, I would give anything if it meant we could hold you again.We love you always and forever my beautiful Gabriella, our beautiful little angel.
