Rapper 36 year old Adolph Robert Thornton Jr., better known by his stage name Young Dolph was gunned down in his hometown of Memphis while going out to enjoy his hometown favorite cookie shop, Makeda’s Homemade Butter Cookies. Yesterday Young Dolph was laid to rest in his hometown of Memphis in private funeral service with a Homegoing that was fit for a King.
Young Dolph’s family asked “.. that everyone please respect their privacy during this difficult time as they mourn the loss of their loved one.”
Young Dolph’s service was held at First Baptist Church Broad Street. Then the family’s caravan of black SUVs was escorted by security and Memphis Police to Young Dolph’s final resting place at a cemetery in South Memphis across from Hamilton High School, Young Dolph’s alma mater.

We will be keeping the family, friends and colleagues of Young Dolph uplifted in our prayers.
