Trevor Anthony Clarke III's Obituary
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Trevor Anthony Clarke, III. Trevor entered into heaven on Saturday, August 27, 2022 at the age of fourteen. He was born to his loving parents Christina L. Drones and Trevor A. Clarke, Jr. on July 24, 2008 in Memphis, Tennessee. In addition to his parents, Trevor also leaves to cherish his memories his sisters Jordan Drones, Tiffany Clarke, Amanda-Naoimi Clarke, Maddison Clarke, and Trevian Clarke, brothers Christian Clarke, Trevion Clarke, his Nana Blanche G. Wilson, his grandmother Gloria Wynter, grandfather Trevor Clarke Sr., great-grandmothers Dolcie Clarke and Hazeline Edwards, Aunts Monica Wilder and Tenesha Clarke, and Uncle Rashidee Clarke, as well as a host of extended family and loving friends.
Trevor, lovingly known as “Tre” by those close to him, was a joyous, fun, and happy boy. He was loving, energetic, and immediately brightened any room he entered. Family was important to Trevor. He loved spending time with family and friends. His cousins were very special to him, and he loved getting out and running and playing with them at family gatherings. Trevor’s favorite hobbies included playing video games - particularly Roblox and Fortnite, as well as listening to music by Juice WRLD and other favorite artists. Trevor was an incredibly bright kid and taught himself animation. He shared this talent and creativity with the world by teaching other kids how to animate, and through his YouTube channel. Check out some of his animated videos on his channel Mas Animations by clicking HERE. Trevor also loved superheroes, having a special place in his heart for Marvel heroes. Trevor’s favorite hero was Spider-Man, but especially the Miles Morales Spider-Man from “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse”. Trevor left his mark on our hearts, and will live on forever in our memories. Trevor, we love you 3000.
There is a quote by Miles Morales in the iconic movie Trevor loved so much that says “Anyone can wear the mask. You can wear the mask. If you didn't know that before, I hope you do now. Cuz I'm Spider-Man. And I'm not the only one.” Trevor showed incredible strength throughout his illness, and his strength made him a hero to many around him. Trevor showed that when you are #trevorstrong, anyone can be a hero. Trevor’s family has requested that in lieu of flowers, you put on the mask and be someone else’s hero by making a donation in Trevor’s memory to one of the following charities.
