Khalil Adolemaiu- Bey

KHALIL TYREK JABBAR ADOLEMAIU-BEY, son of Khalil and Darlene Adolemaiu-Bey, was born April 21, 1980 in Baltimore, Maryland. Khalil suddenly departed this life while playing basketball on December 11, 2012, doing something he loved, especially with Keion and Bryant. Khalil was educated in Baltimore, Maryland. He started his career path being a private contractor at Comcast; then worked at Dish Network for at least 5 years, where he became a supervisor; before being employed by Honeywell as a supervisor under a BGE contract. When the BGE contract ended he was employed by Grid One as a supervisor which was his final job. He was always a loyal and dependable employee. He really enjoyed the special time he spent with his closest friends or family, like hanging out with Zack, Dre (Andre), Christopher, Rocca, Khalilah, Garcia, Derek, John, Pinky, Jimmy and Veronica. He was affectionately known as the (gentle giant). However, there are many other names that could be added to this list but it would be too ling to mention, so please forgive us. Khalil was a warm and kind-hearted person who was always willing to lend a helping hand, regardless of the task. All of the children of the family depended on him to take care of them. He would make time for them no matter what he had to do. Khalil was a perfect role model. He dearly loved his family. He always had a positive outlook on life, even when things were not in his favor.
