Angie Zapata  would have turned 21 yesterday. She died in July 2008, a little more than two years shy of that milestone, at the hands of a man who claimed he "snapped" when he realized that Zapata, a striking Latina beauty, was biologically male.

Angie's friends and family didn't want her 21st birthday to go uncelebrated. So tomorrow, they're throwing her a birthday party at Chique nightclub, 940 Lincoln Street, that doubles as a fundraiser for the fledgling Angie Zapata Scholarship Fund.
