Antwanne Terrell Shanks, Jr. was born September 29, 2002 to Carnishia Williams and the late Antwanne Terrell Shanks, Sr. in Orange Park, FL.
Antwanne was a very charming and outgoing person with a smile that could light up any room. He played football for Orange Park Athletic Association from the age of 5 to 12 years old, where he dominated the field playing both offense and defense positions many of his games.

Antwanne learned how to paint while working summers under the direction of his grandfather, Keith Shanks, Sr. Later he began to travel with his aunt, Talithia Shanks, learning how to be a Sterile Processing Technician. Most of all, Antwanne loved his role of big brother and took the role very seriously. He always made sure to call, text and spend time with his siblings.
