Man Who Took Care Of Young Dolph’s Memorial Site Shot & Killed

One of the men who has been consistently cleaning up after Young Dolph’s memorial site in Memphis, Jeremiah Taylor, was tragically shot and killed last week. His death was reported on Friday morning, shocking his friends and family.

According to Fox 13 Memphis, Taylor was one of the people responsible for keeping Young Dolph’s memorial clean and looked after, tidying up multiple times per week. A friend of Taylor’s, Frank Gottie, said that the man always lent a helping hand to his loved ones when it was needed.

“Jeremiah was a great person and he was so on point,” said Gottie. “He was helpful he would try to help anybody.”

The suspects in this murder case have not been located and the Memphis Police Department is on the lookout. It is unclear if any connection exists tying this to Young Dolph’s murder last year.
