Following the tragic death of Young Dolph at Makeda's Cookie Shop in Memphis, the local business has reopened one of its locations. The Airways location where the shooting happened will remain closed until the end of the year.
Makeda’s Cookies operations manager Raven Winton spoke to local CBS affiliate WREG about Young Dolph regularly visiting their store. Winton stated, "That was one thing that Dolph did, [he] use to say when you get off the expressway. He was like, 'I can smell y'all. I'm getting off the expressway. I had to come in.' To know that we’re not going to see that face anymore is I'm trying to hold back tears. I'm sorry."
Winton went on to speak about how the business will keep Dolph's name alive, stating, "We know that the city is in mourning, and we don’t want to stop that." She then added that Makeda's is planning on renaming their chocolate chip cookie after Dolph, as it was his favorite.
