Sebastian David “Bash” Bartlett-Humphreys, 7, of Granite City, Illinois, passed away at 5:23 p.m. on Saturday, September 12, 2026, along with his precious bonus mom, Shanna, and beloved sister, Bailey.

He was born July 26, 2019, in Maryville, Illinois, the son of Cody Alan “Dada” Humphreys of Granite City and Brionna “Bri Momma” Bartlett of Pontoon Beach. Sebastian was a second-grade student at Prather Elementary School in Granite City.

Sebastian was a sweet and soft-hearted little boy with a gentle spirit and an abundance of love to give. A true cuddle bug, he loved being close to his family and had a special bond with his sister, Bailey, always serving as her comforter and protector. He loved anything on wheels, especially firetrucks, cars, and motorcycles. Sebastian’s beautiful eyes, warm smile, and loving energy could truly light up any room, and his tender heart left an unforgettable impression on everyone who knew and loved him.
