Young Dolph’s Family Releases A Statement
One week after Dolph’s passing, his family, for the first time, released a statement. The family remembered Dolph’s great legacy in the heartfelt statement that read,
There are no words that exist, that sufficiently express the pain we are feeling as a family. Losing Adolph, Dolph, Man-Man, changes our lives forever. And while we will take each day as it comes, we are comforted in knowing that he leaves a legacy that reflects his heart. A heart that was for his family. A heart that was for the people.
They thanked the public for their outpouring of support amid the difficult time and found comfort that his obligation to kindness was being recognized by the world.
