Friends and family say Cheese had been in the park to console a friend.

"He was over there consoling a new friend of his who had lost his friend a year ago and he lost his life, because somebody came through shooting," said Damien Posey from the organization Us4Us Bay Area at the time.

Tuesday, the San Francisco Police Department announced it had authorized the reward for information leading to the identification, arrest, and conviction of those responsible for the murders.
