Adonye was born April 1, 2005, in Berkeley, California and relocated to Mississippi to start the life that we know now. He attended West Harrison as an Ilth grader. He was an honor student who loved basketball. Adonye was cherished by his teachers, classmates and best known in the gamer world as TNIKvng-ward23. He enjoyed playing video games with family and friends.

He was preceded in death by his grandmothers, Willie Mae Robertson and Maxine Brown and an uncle, Ryan Deance.

He leaves to cherish his memories, his PawPaw, Phillip Robertson Sr., Butch Carter, (Momo) Thelma Carter; his mother, Tameka Brown, his father, Joe Brown; eight brothers, Lyndale, Antonio, J'Von, Camden, Joe, Joe-Joe, Kaden, and Riley; seven sisters, Krisstyn, Asianae, Jehlani, Lauren, Aalayah, Amari, and A'Miracle; eleven uncles, Robert, Raymond, Manky, Leonard, Jethro, Wallace, James, Elliott, Sam, Danel, and Caramanza; four aunts, Rosalind, Kayleigh, Rachel, and Cauricia, and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

We truly know that the flesh is weak. As much as we want to be selfish and keep Adonye with us, God is in control of all, and this is Adonye's time to stand with Him and watch over us all.
