James Redmon

James Earl Redmon, 65, was a Memphis man whose steady presence and commitment to his work defined much of his later life. Employed as a security guard, he worked to help keep families and patrons safe at local venues, including serving on the security team at the Main Event entertainment center in the Cordova/Appling Farms Parkway area. Those who spoke publicly after his death described him as a hardworking family man whose children and relatives deeply mourned his loss.

Family members — including his son La’Dameyon (reported in local coverage) — appeared in news accounts as they sought answers after his passing, and his estate later pursued legal action related to the circumstances of his death. Court filings and local coverage identify him by his full name, James Earl Redmon, and place him in Memphis, Tennessee.

While public records and news stories center on the events surrounding his death, the available information also shows a life tied to community and family: he lived and worked in Memphis and is remembered in reporting and legal filings by name and age. Public tributes and memorials online (including community-contributed pages documenting victims of gun violence) reflect that friends, co‑workers, and family members marked his passing and sought to honor his memory.

Because no family-published funeral-home obituary matching the exact July 22, 2024 death date was found in major local obituary repositories or funeral-home listings, this remembrance relies on contemporaneous local news and court records to reflect verified facts about James Earl Redmon’s life and passing. He is remembered here first as a person who worked to support his family and as a member of the Memphis community whose loss was felt by those closest to him.
