Medical examiners determined that on the night of Friday, July 6th Randy Parker died of a self inflicted gunshot wound to the head. According to Simone Parker, his mother, he had suffered from severe depression for several years before his death. Parker was only 23 when he died, just short of his 24th birthday. July 18th, his upcoming birthday, is when private memorial services are being held by his family in Florida. There will also be another memorial service in New York later this summer. KRS-One is currently on tour with Marley Marl overseas.
