Aureon Shavea Grace

Aureon Shavea Grace, a devoted mother and daughter sadly passed away on June 16, 2024 in Glennville, GA. She was born in Statesboro, GA to her parents, Deshonda Hagins Fox and Audrell Grace, Sr., on September 21, 1999. 

Aureon graduated from Statesboro High School in 2018, where she undoubtedly left a lasting impact on those around her. Aureon's presence will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her. She worked as a Corrections officer for the State of Georgia and was currently working with Aramark Corp. as a Kitchen Steward at the Smith State Prison in Glennville, GA. Aureon's dedication to her work was matched only by her love for her children, family, and friends. Her family, friends, and colleagues described her as a kind and respectful young lady with a heart full of love for everyone she met.
