Shawna Graham-Seale

Shawna was born in Odessa, Texas on August 25, 1980. She was a loving mother, a precious daughter, and a caring sister and friend. Shawna’s passion was being with her two children. The time Shawna spent with Cody and Maddy created memories that will last a life time. They enjoyed taking family trips, swimming in NeNe and Pa’s pool, pampering Maddy at the “nail shop”, and taking Cody riding on 4-wheelers and go-carts. Taking care of her children’s wants and needs was her primary drive in life. Personally, Shawna loved to hunt, dance, and listen to country music.

Her childhood was spent in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and in 1998, she graduated from Iraan High School. Shawna attended Shelton Junior College, in Tuscaloosa, Alabama in pursuit of a nursing degree. She had recently moved back to Texas to be close to family, friends, and those she loved.

Shawna is survived by her son, Cody Lane Seale and her daughter, Madison Nicole Seale; her children’s father, Charles “Chuck” Seale; her parents Ridgy and Necia Graham of Iraan, TX, and Leslie Graham of Tuscaloosa, AL; her sister, Christina Barton and children Cade, Cara, and Cali of Reform, AL; her brother, Jacob Graham and his wife, Christy of Iraan, TX; her grandparents, Shirley Graham of Sheffield, TX; Sarah Green of Robert Lee, TX; and Alicia Sconiers of Iraan, TX; and many uncles, aunts, cousins, and family friend, Jake Wilson.

She is preceded in death by her grandfathers, Edgar Sherwood Graham, Bobby Green, and “Papa” Neal Sconiers.
