Obituary for Brantley Royce Drewery, Age 8 of Pope, MS (June 29, 2011 – November 15, 2019)

Obituary:

Brantley Royce Drewery

Brantley Royce Drewery was born June 29, 2011, in Tupelo, Ms. His parents Jacob and Tallan Drewrey know they were given a miracle not long after he was born. Brantley was one of only five to ever be recorded having a partial 4 Q chromosome deletion (13.1-22.1). Despite his difficulties, it was rare to see Brantley without a big smile on his face. His bubbly laugh was contagious and could brighten anyone’s day. He faced each day without fear and woke up every morning giggling and laughing until someone came and loved on him. He filled so many people’s hearts with joy and touched the lives of people who had never even met him. He was truly a miracle from God. Brantley passed peacefully in his sleep with his mother by his side on the morning of November 15, 2019. Bound to a wheelchair on Earth, he is now free to run and play in the playgrounds of Heaven. Brantley will remain in his parent’s hearts forever.

Balloons will be released in a celebration of his life at Abundant Light, 7267 Pope Crowder Road, Pope, Mississippi on Thursday, November 21, 2019.  His life will be celebrated Saturday, November 23, 2019, from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m., at the Hamilton Funeral Home Chapel and Sunday, November 24, 2019, at 1:00 p.m., at the Denmark Baptist Church, 77 County Road 423, Oxford, Mississippi.

He is survived by his father, Jacob Drewerey and step-mother Heather, Mother, Tallan Drewrey, Sister, Presley Drewrey, Grandparents:  David and Becky Drewery, Jennifer May and Keith and Cynthia Jones, Great-Grandparents:  Sue Jenkins, Carolyn Richardson, and Glenda Drewrey, Aunts and Uncles: Rick and Jessica King, Chad and Ina Roberts, Kris and Anna Horton, Richie and Regina Jenkins, Cousins:  Phoebe and Sophie King, Trent and Channing Roberts, Carley, Auston, and Emma Horton.

He was preceded in death by, Grandfather, Alan Horton, and Grandmother, Anglea Jenkins, Great-Grandparents:  Bill Drewery, Bettie Ruth White, and Carolyn Richardson.*
