Memphis was born on March 7, 2018, in Fayetteville, NC to Morgan
Elizabeth Lemons. Memphis passed away April 27, 2024, in Marietta
following a tragic accident.
Memphis was raised by his loving mawme/grandmother, Laurie Lemons and
mother, Morgan. He attended Fundamentals Therapy Center and kindergarten
with Vprep of Oklahoma. He looked forward to attending school and the
daily car rides with his memaw and papaw, Eyvonna and Clifton "Bud"
Lemons. Memphis loved his teachers, spending time with his friends, and
learning new things.
Memphis was a vibrant and bright boy. He loved playing with Legos and
always thought the directions they provided with the Lego sets were
incorrect, and he would build it better. Memphis had a connection with
Pokémon, and he called them his "babies". He enjoyed being outdoors,
playing in his sandbox, and picking flowers. Memphis was a great hunter
and collector of bugs. One of his favorite pastimes was going to the
zoo, the aquarium, and the ocean. Memphis loved to see all the animals
and was mesmerized by the water.
Memphis was preceded in death by his great-great-grandparents, Jack and
Willie "Claudell" Higgins and C.H. "Bud" and Ora Lemons.
