Family members paid their respects Tuesday to a young Bronx boy cut down by gun violence.

Mourners gathered in Harlem to remember 4-year-old Lloyd Morgan, who was killed at the Forest Houses in Morrisania more than a week ago.

A public viewing will be held Wednesday from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. at Mount Neboh Baptist Church on Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard.

Funeral services will follow, with Rev. Al Sharpton delivering the eulogy.

Meanwhile, Bronx Assemblyman Eric Stevenson said a private benefactor has taken care of the funeral bill.

He's urging residents to continue to reach out and support the family.

Investigators believe the 4-year old was hit by a stray bullet during a gunfight outside a nearby basketball tournament.

Three people are charged in connection with the shooting, including 17-year-old Rondell Pinkerton and 19-year-old Ronald Jeffrey, who both face murder charges.
