Florida Avenue, Pastor Herbert McFadden, eulogist, with Pastor Timothy Cohen, officiating. The interment will follow. Adonis was born in Miami, Florida on May 5th, 1990 to Ulysses Cohen and Susie B. Boone. Adonis was a very inquisitive kid who loved music, reading books, and writing short stories. He was affectionately known as 'Booga' by his mother, and was a very loving kid. In 1998, Adonis and his mother relocated to Tampa, Florida and became members of New Birth M.B. Church. There, Adonis acknowledged his belief in the Lord and received Jesus Christ as his Savior. Adonis was passionate about church and served actively in the Youth & Children's Christian Education Ministry as well as the Mt. Pilgrim Youth & Children's District Congress. He received his formal education through Hillsborough County Public Schools. He graduated from Thomas Jefferson High School Academy of International Business in 2008, then furthering his education at Florida A&M University. Adonis had 'GREAT LOVE' for his mother and family and was admired by many. His smile would light up the room and if he knew you were feeling down he would bring laughter to your heart.
