Parchman Profiles

Abdur Ambrose Snr

Greetings! My name is Abdur Rahim Ambrose Snr. And I’m a huge NFL guy. I played football from pewee league all the way to college. I also like to cook, paint and write music, poems, and short stories. The biggest blessing God ever blessed me with is my children……they mean the world to me! Spending time with them or speaking with them brings me the most joy. I’m also a momma’s boy…..she’s my superhero! I love nature and just being outdoors camping, fishing, or just watching the animals come and go. I like helping people who are in need. I like fixing broken things because I like the challenge. I like life like it’s no tomorrow and I learn like I will live forever.

Kelvin Lashaun Jordan

Hi!

My name is Kelvin Lashaun Jordan and I love volleyball and basketball although I haven’t played in a very long time.

I can sing but I keep that between me and the shower. I love to work puzzles in my downtime and I draw and write poetry as well.

All my family is gone, except my mom. I read a lot to pass the time and I exercise to stay fit.

Everyone calls me KJ, God bless!

Anthony Carr

Hi!

My name is Anthony Carr and I’m as dark as a moonless night in the most escalating aspect.

I enjoy reading about brilliant people with brilliant minds such as scholars. I’m fascinated to learn about some of the ways of Gods. I also enjoy watching a wide range of movies and I like going outside to walk around on the grass.

Most of my family have passed from this life but I still have family that I enjoy spending quality time with. There is a saying that a person’s true character is revealed by what she or he does when nobody is watching.

I appreciate your kindness and understanding….take care and God Speed with many blessings!

I am the sole lady on death row in Mississippi and am housed in Central Correctional Facility.
 
My interests are bible study and reading – I also now get to attend church service.
 
I’m a film buff and enjoy drama and action movies, Reese Witherspoon is just so good!
 
I find watching house renovation shows and cookery shows very relaxing. I miss my cats from back home and would love to have a pet in here.
 

Tim Ronk

My name is Tim but for the past 15 years I have been on Death Row everyone has just called me Jersey. Guess when you get locked up in Mississippi and you are from New Jersey you get a nickname.
 
Most of every day here I am either writing songs, playing guitar or practicing praise & worship songs for church.
 
I love all kinds of music as well as reading books, especially fantasy.
