Theus was called from this life on Saturday November 18, 2023, to rest. Theus Carthel Dewberry, Sr A.K.A. Theo or Dewberry was born to Tony Carthel Dewberry and Lela Hill-Dunmore in Kansas City, Missouri on November 22, 1986. Theus is preceded in death by his great grandmother, Lela “Sarah” Burris, his grandfather, Curtis G Dewberry “Papa,” his uncles, Quincy D. Dewberry & James Fletcher and cousin, Bessie Evans. Theus grew up in Kansas City, Missouri and accepted Christ at an early age at Swope Parkway Church of Christ. As a child he often recited lengthy Bible verses that he learned in Sunday School; for graduation day under his very own Sunday school teacher and grandma, Biggie Dewberry. As a child he attended Caruthers Dance studio where he took tap dancing, tumbling and hip-hop classes. While in Elementary School at Woodland Greek Charter, Theus was in enrolled as in Gymnast and learned how to swim at Woodland Charter. Theus played T-ball and basketball with the All Stars and Blazers Organizations. Because Theus was such a good dancer and athletic, he later joined a Hip Hop and R&B dance group, as a teen where they performed at both shows and dance competitions. Theus graduated from Raytown South High School in 2004, where he played football on the Junior Varsity team. After graduation he attended Barber School as a trade to learn how to cut and groom hair for himself, family, and friends. Theus had a reputation and talent for being quite stylish and well put together from head to toe. It was evident that he inherited style from his mom, Lela and dad, Tony. Theus became a father, best friend, and everything to his son, Theus C Dewberry Jr, nicknamed, “Fat Man” by his father. He adored and loved his son so much. Theus Sr coached his son’s football teams and attended all his games. Theus, Sr was a die-hard KC Chiefs fan! How ‘bout those Chiefs (in our Theus voice). As an adult Theus Sr rededicated his life to God and was re-baptized and member at Covenant Presbyterian Church with his mom and grandmother Loretta Hill. Theus Sr loved his job at Metro Park Warehouse as a forklift driver where he will be truly missed!
