Aveyun Dekova Levar Smith

Aveyun Delunn Mikia Dekova Levar Smith was born to Marquis C. Smith and Johnell Graham on May 3, 2001 in Stuttgart, Arkansas. He departed this life on August 16, 2023 in Fayetteville, Arkansas.

As a child, he loved playing basketball and football. His favorite hobby throughout his life was fishing. It was a good thing that Aveyun loved to fish, because he loved eating! Aside from eating, his next daily task was ‘aggravating his aunties’. AV, as he was known, was a very mannerable young man with a big smile.

He was preceded in death by his grandmothers Erma Lee Graham and Uradell Robinson McCastle, grandfathers L.V. Bradley and Andew Graham, and sister Marshay Johnson.

Aveyun leaves to cherish special moments and memories a daughter Ava Smith, son Aven Smith, and their mother Megan Bailey, all of Stuttgart, AR; parents Marquis Smith and Johnell (Lucille) Graham, all of Stuttgart, AR; sisters Avyunna Smith and Nashyia Graham, both of Stuttgart, AR; brothers Johnell Graham, Jr. and Davion Graham, both of Stuttgart, AR; grandmother Stephanie Smith of Stuttgart, AR; grandfather Carl McCastle of Stuttgart, AR; great grandmothers Lillie McCoy and Chestine McCastle, both of Stuttgart, AR; godbrother Slade West of Stuttgart, AR; godmother Jas of Dallas, TX; and a host of aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
