Billy Been Obituary
Billy Joe Been, of Morris, Oklahoma, was born sleeping on Monday, September 23, 2025, at 2:00 a.m. at a hospital in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Though his time with his family was tragically short, he was and will forever remain a deeply cherished son and brother. We find peace in knowing he was too perfect for this world and is now safe in the arms of Jesus.
He is survived by his loving parents, Jason and Katie Been of Morris, Oklahoma; and his many siblings who will forever hold him in their hearts: Kaci Hatt, Jaden Been, Diamond Been, Dani Been, Avery Been, Natalie Yandell, Noah Been, Caroline Been, Jimmy Been, and Mazie Been. Billy Joe is also survived by his many loving grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins who share in the family's grief.
