Visit the Cumby Family Funeral Service - High Point website to view the full obituary.
HIGH POINT - Tylese DeShawn McAdoo, 20, died Thursday, July 31, 2025, at his residence.

He was born on April 11, 2005, in High Point and was the son of Emma May Freeman Johnson and Phillip Lee McAdoo, Sr. He attended T.W. Andrews High School and later worked in the landscaping industry with McAdoo and Company. Tylese enjoyed activities such as skateboarding, sports and video gaming. He enjoyed testing the limits to his talents and had a natural gift of humor that could make anyone laugh. He came into this world and brought joy and has now transcended back to heavenly joy.

He was preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Augustus and Mary Freeman; and an uncle, Paul Freeman.

Tylese leaves behind a whole host of family and friends including his mother and step-father, Emma and Fred Johnson of Wake Forest; his father, Phillip Lee McAdoo, Sr. of Dothan, Alabama; sister, Mackenzie McAdoo of Fort Sam Houston, Texas; two brothers, Phillip L. McAdoo, Jr. of Germany and Maxwell Johnson of Wake Forest; and paternal grandparents, Arthur and Daphne McAdoo of High Point.

A memorial mass celebrating Tylese's life will be held at 1:30 PM Friday, August 15, 2025, at Christ the King Catholic Church in High Point with Father Joseph Dinh officiating.

Condolences may be sent to the family online on Tylese's tribute page at www.cumbyfuneral.com.
