Melissa Beebe-Sain Obituary

Melissa Ann Beebe-Sain
MYRTLE BEACH, SC - Beebe-Sain, Melissa Ann passed away on Friday, August 20, 2021, in Myrtle Beach, SC, at the age of 54. Missy was born on January 5, 1967, in Flint, Michigan, and lived there until moving to South Carolina in 2009. She was so happy living in paradise (her words), close to the beach, and working her dream job of pet sitting.
Missy is survived by the loves of her life, her sons, Jake, and Jonah Sain; her parents Jerry and Karen (Hicklin) Beebe; sister Kristin (Kirk) Neibert and nephew Ripken and niece Riley of Bellevue, WA; brother, Jeff (Krissy) and nephew Sam and niece Hattie of Springhill, TN; many aunts, uncles, and cousins.
Anyone who knew her understood her love for people and sports, especially the Michigan Wolverines, and spending time with her many friends. Recently, she took up photography and left behind tons of photos for us to enjoy. There was always a camera in her hand and she gave us explicit instructions to take lots of pictures if we were going somewhere without her. And who can forget her grief when Kenny Rogers died?
Guests will be received on Saturday, September 11, 2 pm-5pm at 187 Fox Tail Court, Aiken, SC 29803
To honor Missy and her love for pets, please consider a donation to the Aiken County Animal Shelter 333 Wire Rd Aiken, SC 29801
