Medical Student Stabbed to Death in Library Was 'The Little Engine That Could,' Mom Says

(BOSTON) — A medical student stabbed to death in a Massachusetts library was “The Little Engine That Could,” her mother said Thursday.

Deane Kenny Stryker “was a very warm person, always did the right thing, loved to pull a prank, conducted herself with self-respect and respected others,” Michal Kenny said in a statement to The Boston Globe on the same day as her daughter’s funeral.

Stryker, 22, was killed Saturday at the Winchester Public Library.

The first-year student at the University of New England’s College of Osteopathic Medicine in Maine wanted to be a doctor since she was a little girl, her mother said. In high school, she shadowed a family friend at a medical walk-in clinic.
