Kash Amiri Kendrick

In loving memory of Kash Amiri Kendrick, who was born on August 10, 2006, in the vibrant city of Memphis, Tennessee, and whose life was tragically cut short on September 6, 2025. Kash's life was a testament to love, courage, and an unwavering sense of loyalty, as he made the ultimate sacrifice for his beloved 12-year-old brother, King Kendrick. Kash was the cherished son of Jeffery Kendrick and Kardasha Simmons. He shared a special bond with his younger brother King, and his sister, Adrianna Begley, whom he affectionately referred to as his "5" or his "MiniMe". He also leaves behind his dear aunt, Shawntae Begley. Though his time with his infant daughter, Kaliyah Kendrick, was brief, her memory remained a significant part of his life. Kash's love for Jayda, his "BM", was profound; despite the challenges they faced, she held a special place in his heart. A proud graduate of Central High School in Memphis, Kash earned his diploma through online schooling. He spent his high school years and a few months beyond working at the Cordova Skating Ring, a place where he created countless memories and friendships. Kash was a young man of many talents and passions. He loved the thrill of basketball and football, the rhythm of rap, and the art of crafting his own music. His father, Jeffery, fondly remembers Kash's remarkable ability to hear a song once and memorize every word. Adrianna, his sister, speaks of his honesty, recalling how he always "kept it one hundred," never feeling the need to sugarcoat anything. Kash's life will be celebrated on September 12, 2025, at 7:45 AM at the Appalachian Funeral Homes. In honoring his memory, the family kindly suggests donations be made to a charity of your choice, a gesture that reflects Kash's generous spirit. The Kendrick family shares this special message with all who knew and loved Kash: LLKASHAMIRI. His legacy of love, bravery, and authenticity will forever be etched in the hearts of his family and friends.
