Taylor Wilkinson, Fisher College student has sadly passed away. Taylor died following a hit-and-run crash in Boston’s Roxbury neighborhood over the weekend, the school confirmed Monday.
The incident occurred around 8:30 p.m. on Washington Street at Lenox Street when two women were struck by a car. Both were rushed to the hospital, but one of the women, identified by the school as Taylor Wilkinson, succumbed to her injuries.
“This is an unimaginable loss, and our hearts go out to her family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing and loving her,” said Steven Rich, president of Fisher College.
Wilkinson, 20, graduated in 2023 from the Edward M. Kennedy Academy for Health Careers in Boston before beginning her studies at Fisher College that same year. She was a sophomore majoring in management with a focus on fashion merchandising. Wilkinson is survived by her twin sister, who is also a student at Fisher.
