Memphis Mourns the death of Lorenzen Wright


The funeral services for ex NBA player Lorenzen Wright,34, took place today. Ironically today marks one week since Memphis Police Department found him shot to death in a wooded area off of Hacks Cross road. I watched the memorial service on tv today and teared up more times than I can count. My heart went out to his family especially his children. Thousands watched as Mayor AC Wharton, Honorable Willie Herenton, Kappa fraternity, family members and friends shared memories of Lorenzen. Steve Cohen even pulled a Kanye and said a few words, he was not on the program. Today Memphis mourns the loss of a son, brother, father, hero, and philanthropist. To date Memphis police have yet to release any further information in the murder case. Many suspect his wife only because of her contradicting stories she has given. I pray that justice is served to whomever committed this horrific crime. Here are a few pictures via news channel 3's website
