Erin Piacenti was 32 years old and had only just returned from maternity leave.
It was her first day back at the Bank of America office in New York when a woman attacked her at random near Times Square. At home, her husband, Frank, and their daughter, Madison, just 5 months old, were waiting for her.
The family broke their silence through a fundraiser for the little girl.
They described her as a devoted wife, daughter, sister, and “incredibly loving” mother, and asked for one simple thing: that she be remembered for how she lived, not how she died.
Erin and Frank had met at Fordham Law School, married in August 2024, and had just returned from a family road trip.
Bank of America also bid farewell to its “valued teammate” in its own statement.
