We gather here today to celebrate the life of Shadea Stevenson, born on December 9, 1985 in Steubenville, Ohio. She was the beloved daughter of Leroy Slappy the 2nd and Tyra Stevenson, and had a sibling, Rashade Stevenson. She leaves behind her precious daughter, A'honisty Gadsden, who studied at Steubenville High School and graduated in 2004.

Shadea was known for her passion for drawing portraits and coloring them. Her artistic talent was truly unmatched, and she found joy in expressing herself through her art.

Unfortunately, Shadea's life was cut short on August 12, 2024 due to an overdose from drugs. Despite the circumstances of her passing, we choose to remember the light she brought into this world and the laughter she shared with those around her.

As we say goodbye to Shadea, let us cherish the memories of her infectious smile and kind heart. May she rest in peace, surrounded by the vibrant colors she so lovingly brought to life on canvas.
