Lorenzo Pryor

Lorenzo Myles Pryor, affectionally known as Kilo,23, of Richmond, Virginia departed this life on Saturday, January 23, 2021. Born August 4, 1997 to Cher (C.C.) Holt & the late Clyde Lorenzo Pryor, Jr. Zo became a member of Mount Olivet Baptist Church at a young age. He was a graduate of Louisa County High School.

Authentic, genuine, stand up, the realest. Many words can be used to describe who Lorenzo was, but his actions proved it. He was the quiet chill one, but when he spoke, his voice was both heard and respected as he was wise beyond his years. To his mother, he was “Zo”, her peace in the middle of the storm. She affectionately referred to her son as her “rider” because he would always come through for his mom.

The bond shared between Kilo and his brothers was unbreakable. He was the one they went to for sound advice, guidance, and wise counsel. He loved his brothers enough to not be their “yes man” but instead encouraged them to be men of honor and integrity. Kilo challenged them to focus only on things that were important… things that truly mattered. To Leek, his brother was the water to his fire…the one who could calm his spirit. Trell says for me you could say Kilo was like my other half, from the way we talked, the way we picked up on certain things & people, and the way we understood each other & acted when we were together. You didn’t know me without knowing him. Khi looked up to this brother in light of a father figure as he kept them focused and in line, always encouraging them both to aim for greater and follow the path least expected.

While Zo was so much to so many, his new role as a father was near and dear to his heart. He was adamant and steadfast on being present in his son’s life, and he was. A lover of music and one who loved life and lived. While many hearts are saddened by his sudden departure may we be continuously reminded of the life jewels he gave us all while he was with us.

He was greeted at heaven’s gate by his father; Clyde Pryor Jr., grandfather Clyde Pryor Sr., grandmother Sharon Pryor & great grandmothers Edna Holt & Sarah Pryor. His memory will be cherished by his devoted mother, Cher (C.C.) Holt; one son, Messiah Pryor; three brothers, Malik Holt, Latrell Pryor & Malachi Dobson ; his girlfriend, Kailey Jordan; grandparents Joyce Holt, Rev. & Mrs. Larry & Shanor Holt & Sylvia Pryor; stepmom Mozelle Foster; aunts Sherri Pryor Robinson(Carlton) & Tamie Williamson; uncles Gary Coles(Jacqui), Larry Holt Jr., Mark Hunter(Jodi), Brian Hunter & Eric Hunter(Erika); nephew, Cam’Rhon Holt; nieces Adyson & Xiaomi Holt; devoted cousins, Austin & Dallas Coles, Michael, Jasmyn & Sydney Williamson, Bryant Pryor & Katelyn Slone; two sisters in love, Abree Ajosto & Tierra Kalepp; devoted mentor, Frankie Johnson; five great aunts, three great uncles, and a host of cousins, relatives, friends and the homies.
