Diary of Life
Courtney DeShun Nailor, affectionately known as C-Rock Luv, was born February 1, 1986, to the late Karen Moore and Billy Joe Nailor. Courtney attended Payne Chapel AME Church at an early age. In his younger years, he accepted Christ and was baptized at Cummings Street Missionary Baptist Church. He served in the youth choir at Cummings Street, lifting his voice in praise to God. Courtney grew up in the North Memphis community, where he attended Raleigh Egypt High School. From then, he was employed at Worx of Wood, Krystal Restaurant, Trolley Stop Market and Broadway Pizza until his illness. Courtney was preceded in death by his mother, Karen Moore; both of his grandmothers, Christelle Nailor and Ruby Moore; his grandfather, Chester Lloyd, Sr.; his great-grandmother, Pauline Foster; one aunt, Phyllis Stevenson; and four uncles: Chester Lloyd, Jr., Glen Lloyd, Sr., Dennis Nailor, and Lornza Williams. To cherish his memory, he leaves his father, Billy Joe Nailor (Linda); his grandmother, Lorene Burrow; stepfather, Augustus Moore; three sisters: Kimberly D. Nailor, Kimberly Nailor and Sherrica Nailor; two brothers: Marcus Moore (LaShonda) and Corry Moore (Tinna); and a host of other relatives and dear friends who will cherish his amazing legacy forever. “18The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.� (Psalm 34:18, New International Version)
