3 1/2 years on this Earth was not long enough ! But in those short years the amount of lives Junior touched and the love he gave was endless. Junior enjoys camping anywhere with his family no matter the location just as long as he was in the camper. He loves swimming, riding his bike and 4-wheeler, playing with his nerf guns and most importantly he adores dressing up in his superhero costumes. With the circumstances of Junior's health he went through alot that no one knew about, but he fought long and hard just like the superhero he is. Jesus decided that it was his time to take over and let Junior's body rest. He is rejoicing now with a healthy body and will never know or feel pain again. One thing we know is Junior never had to question what love is or never heard the word No. Junior will forever be missed and loved and he will always be our favorite superhero !
A Celebration of Life for Junior will be 3:00 pm Monday June 5, 2023 at Barberville Baptist Church with the Rev. Wesley Stephens officiating. 
Steven is survived by his father and mother; Steven William and Amber Suzanne Franks
