Sixteen years erased by one bullet
Nicknamed “Lil Foe,” he was a rapper, producer and hip-hop artist who attended Thomas Jefferson High School. His friends recalled memories of dancing together and referred to him as “the type to make you laugh when you [were] down.”
He adopted the rapper name “Lil Snow” and posted his last song on his Soundcloud account a year ago. In one song, Humble, he said, “I know God got me, so I never trip. Put the gun down, ball up your fist.”
Darion Gordon, 16, was accidentally shot in the 1100 block of Fairview Avenue in Rockford, Illinois, on May 12, 2018.
