Micah Reeves was a spirited and thoughtful son, brother, and best friend. He harbored several passions for singing, dancing, giving to others without limit, and making those closest to him laugh (as you will soon see he was a giant goofball!). While he has passed through this life way too quickly, his family and friends eagerly look forward to embracing him in the next. We welcome all those who loved him to share a word, memory, song, video, and/or a picture to commemorate him on his memorial page. Please spread the word! 

Thank you and God bless!

I remember going to church with you and Lori on Sunday for the McDonald’s, I remember ganging up on Amaya when ever we all disagreed to get our way, I remember watching movies at sleepovers in your house, I remember fighting for the bigger couch, I remember going to the movies after thanksgiving dinner and complaining about not getting popcorn because we just ate, I remember you scaring me pretending to be a wear Wolff in the bath room by locking the door and making a noises, I remember you wanting to be a YouTube star, I will always love and miss you, till we meet again❤️❤️

Micah was a close friend to me in elementary school. I remember his funny and kind spirit from that time like it was yesterday. I vividly recall the trip to the Grand Canyon we all took in 4th grade. He was such a goofball during that trip. Though we drifted apart in middle school, Micah will always hold a special place in my heart. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of his loved ones. ❤️

I don’t even know where to start. I met you at Jesus Church where I was one of the youth leaders at the time. You could brighten up any room you walked in. That smile was so contagious. You and Dylan were inseparable and soon added my son Cameron to your group. You guys would spend the night at our house and be up all night eating and playing video games. You kept those 2 in line. You always had kind words for me and could brighten a cloudy day with just a smile. You also had a great way of using my words against me. Just goes to show how smart you really were. My heart tells me you are gone way to soon but I know that You belonged to God First and he just let us borrow you for a little while. I will miss you and never forget you. Take it easy on the other angels. Keep smiling ! I dedicate the song Homesick by Mercy Me to you and your family.

Micah was my second cousin and I have never had the pleasure of meeting him. I had hoped to meet him this fall, but I am now saying goodbye rather than hello. I can see by the words of others, that I missed out on knowing a very funny, loving and caring young man. Hearts are broken across our nation at your passing Micah. We are all so sorry that this has happened and would give anything to change it. One day we will meet, so save that smile everyone talks about and keep an eye out for me I will be looking for you! XOXO

Micah Reeves, I love you so much, you were a true angel, to me and many others. I wish you were still around to see the flowers i planted in your name. I’ll make sure to bring those flowers outside every time it rains, I know you loved the rain. You were such a caring soul, doing all you could to make sure I, and others you cared for were ok. I admired you for that, and many other things. You were one of my closest friends, and it breaks my heart to know that you were in so much pain. I’ll make sure to keep all the promises I made you. I love you. Rest in paradise, darling.

My favorite memory of Micah is when he was littke I would go hiking with Meghan Lathon we would take Micah and Amaya with us. He did not like going hiking with us unless we played rap music then he would sit in the stroller and move his head up and down smiling!!

Micah, my best friend, my brother, I will miss you so so much. You were by my side ever since elementary school. I will never forget your smile, and your laugh. I wish we could run up to each other one more time yelling, “hug me brotha!!” like the good old days. There is so much to remember about you, and your life deserves to be celebrated! You were my number one, and we went through just about everything together. Micah had such a beautiful heart, he touched so many people. Even though he was younger, he taught me so much, he was so smart, it amazed me. Thank you Lori (and family) for raising such a strong, and kind hearted person. Thank you for everything.❤️

  • Micah was born in the Paradise Valley Hospital at approximately 4:00p.m. on March 8th, 2004 to Lori and Charles Reeves. He had a 15-year-old sister named Krista and a 12-year-old brother named Josiah, who got to witness his premature birth. His due date was set for April 1st (April Fool's Day), but he came 3 1/2 weeks early. Even premature, Micah came out at a solid 8 pounds with a healthy pair of lungs, and full head of black hair. Doctor said he would've been 11 pounds had he gone to full term.   

  • Micah attended Valley Child Care & Learning Centers until he aged out to kindergarten.  

  • Eventually, he went to Sunset Canyon in the Paradise Valley School District from kinder-2nd grade. In 2011, his mother purchased a home in the Moon Valley neighborhood, which forced him to switch districts. He attended grades 2-6 at John Jacobs Elementary and made new friends with ease. From there, he promoted to Mountain Sky Middle School for 7-8 grades, where he continued his interest for the clarinet in band. And lastly, he transferred to Thunderbird High School.  

  • At just 15 1/2, Micah secured his first job with Bowl of Greens in Scottsdale as a dishwasher. He worked there for nearly 6 months. 

  • Micah attended children/youth church services at the InChurch (Refuge) from ages 6-12. About 2-3 years ago, he began attending services at JC Church so he could be with his  friends. He was attending the JC Church's youth group up until his death.

Micah and I have many stories and memories together but the one I will always and forever cherish is when we were in middle school he and I started “dating ” he was my first boyfriend ever and I loved that he treated me like a Princess no matter what but one night he was talking about his YouTube channel and he was so happy about how many subscribers he got and what he said next made me realize no matter what happens between us I would forever love him he said “ I promise you when we grow up I’m going to buy you a big house with all the money I get from YouTube ” and I was taken by surprise because I couldn’t believe that he thought of me first  and that’s why I loved him even more as a person and as my best friend I will always and forever love you Micah rest easily love❣️

I will miss the way we talked with our eyes over everyone's head.  I will miss picking your clothes up every morning off the bathroom floor and putting the cap back on the toothpaste and always saying Micah as I would shake my head.  Coming home from work and there would be another set of clothes on the floor with the cap off the tooth paste  again . I would shake my head again and utter your name Micah. Freaking out when you drove my car cause you had your permit. I'd be so angry by the time we reached home . I really wasnt sure how we made it back home alive. I would say slow down ,  ok slow down ,MICAH SLOW DOWN! Stop, ok you need to stop , STOP! Go Micah , turn ,  Goooo Micah! My daughter said I over reacted.  I probably did.  I'll miss you coming in my room and letting me know why I needed to buy you what ever it is you wanted or needed at that particular time. Your reasons where always good. You knew you would get it . You are the baby and I always gave in. I would go into your room usually to lecture you.  Of course you knew everything at least you thought you did! I'll miss just you and I eating at panda express or yogurt tini.  I was always worried about you checking where you are on the map ap. Constantly looking where is Micah at. Texting you who are you with ? Why are you there?  Then ending with Micah it's time to come home or I want you to come home or just come home!  I love you and as sad as I am I know I will see you again . You are home! I love you!

There are so many stories to tell...
So many memories....
The one that sticks out to me the most is when we took a trip to Post Texas a several years ago. 
He saw a spider by the door and started running back and forth down the hallway and making sure that every time he passed by the door, the spider was still there. He was so afraid of spiders that he would not kill it. He ran out and told my mom to kill it. My mom was busy at the moment, then a man passed by our hotel room and asked what was going on. Micah explained that there was a spider and he was to scared to kill it. The man laughed and said, “such a big boy and can’t kill a spider.”
That’s when we would realize that he was still a little boy, our little Micah...
