A memorial for Andy Eduardo Gil

Updated: Thanks to the commenter: There is now a crowdfunding campaign for Gil's family.

There's a small memorial in the median at Forsyth and Houston for Andy Eduardo Gil, who police say a hit-and-run driver killed early Thursday morning. Gil was 21. (There are also some flowers and candles on the north curb at Houston.)

According to the Daily News, Gil worked at a hotel "while pursuing his aspirations of becoming a photographer and graphic designer." He was on his way to a photo shoot that morning. 

He lived with his parents and two siblings. 

The driver of the westbound vehicle remains at large.
