(This is a public memorial for Stevie Branch, not connected to his family)

Son of Pam Hicks and Steve Branch Sr., former stepson of Terry Hobbs.

Steve Branch was a very bright and friendly boy who loved listening to music and loved to sing. He was a second grade honor student at Weaver Elementary School in West Memphis, Arkansas, loved the outdoors, and was a member of the Cub Scouts with his friends. His spikey blond hair and crystal blue eyes gave him a very unique and endearing look. He loved animals and had a pet dog named King and a pet turtle. He was a daredevil and wasn't afraid to try new things. He was constantly impressing people with new karate moves and flips he taught himself, inspired by Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Known as "Stevie" to his family and friends, and nicknamed "Bubba" by his younger sister Amanda, he is loved and missed very much.

Steve had his life tragically cut short at the age of eight on May 5, 1993 when he and two of his friends, Christopher Byers and Michael Moore, were murdered in a wooded area of West Memphis, Arkansas known as Robin Hood Hills.

One of Stevie's favorite songs "When the Children Cry" by White Lion was sung at his funeral by his mother and his uncle.

Final resting place: Mount Zion Cemetery - Steele, Missouri
