Arthur James Bevel, Jr was born on December 12, 1945, to Arthur James Bevel, Sr., and Priscilla Shepherd Bevel. Shortly after Arthur Jr.'s birth, his biological father passed away.

Jr. was affectionately known by many names: June Bug, Uncle Jr., Deacon Jr., AJ the DJ, Daddy Jr., JB, Cousin Jr., Honey Bunny, and Candyman, and he received them all with sincere love.
Arthur was Ordained as a Deacon on May 20, 2000, by Bishop Francis S. Davis, Sr. of The General Assembly Church of The Firstborn, Inc. Deacon Jr. embraced his calling as a Deacon and took it very seriously. Our dear Deacon was loved by everyone he met, because to know him truly was to love him.
