It is with great sadness that we announce that our beloved son, brother, grandson, cousin, nephew and uncle, Memphis Beaver has been called home to the Creator on Saturday, September 11, 2021 at the precious age of 16 years old.
Memphis was a humble young man. Since he was a baby all the way until his teen years, he had a passion for auto mechanic and horses. In his younger years he would be singing pow-wow songs and you could hear him singing and humming to himself all day long. He always enjoyed helping out whenever he could. Memphis really enjoyed playing sports outside with his siblings and spending time as a family. He loved them so much and would do anything for them in the world. But above all he loved spending most of his time with his mom whom he was so close too and loved dearly. Memphis had an infectious smile that would light up the room and brighten your day the second he walked in. When he smiled you could see the twinkle in his eyes as his grandma Jeanette said who also happened to be grandma’s spoiled grandchild. We will all miss his smile, jokes and laughter dearly and he will forever be in our hearts.
Memphis is survived by his father, Jeremy Vanance; mother Melvette Beaver; brothers, Shaylen, Jaden and Alec; sisters, Leilah and Kadie, Ledy and Cassiaus; paternal grandparents, Arthur Vanance and Lee Voth; his papa and grandma, Vidal and Jeanette. He is also survived by his uncles, Niel, Adriel, Vidal Jr., Ellis (Tamara), Kyen, Melvin Jr., Clint, Jamie and Jesse Vanance; aunties, Leah, Leilani (Jose), Nathanie, Chelsey, Sophia and Kelsey; his grandma’s that he considered special grandma’s, Marjorie Wildman, Thelma Beaver, Nancy Ear, Lena Wildman, Ramona Wesley, Verna (Tyrone) Beaver and Alice Beaver; grandpa’s, Arthur (Theresa) Wildman, Daniel Wildman and Nigel Beaver; great-grandpa, Skyes (Wanita) Powderface; his close friend, Bevin Poucette along with numerous cousins, aunties and uncles that he was close with.
