Novella Seawright

Novella Charlene Seawright was born October 9, 1969 at Jacobi Hospital in the Bronx, New York.  She was the first born to the proud parents of Leona and Henry Seawright.

Novella was deeply loved by both her parents. She grew up in The Clason Point section of the Bronx. She was educated in the New York City public school system. She attended P.S. 107, Junior High School 174 and went on to graduate from Stevenson High School. It was at Stevenson High School where Novella found her love for math and numbers. She had an affectionate and loving spirit and that is why she probably chose to obtain her certificate as a Home Health Aide so she can help others.

Novella was family oriented and loved spending time with her family, especially her sister Sharon. She was a proud big sister and adored her baby sister. They were best friends and inseparable. She used to look forward to her mother’s “crab dinners” which were held in their backyard. She had a smile that would light up a room and was affectionately called “Vanna Manna” by her mother and sister and she had a flair for fashion and music. She loved a variety of music but her favorite genre was rap. Novella was known for rocking her Levi stretch jeans and Timberland boots while dancing and singing to her favorite artist Cardi B and Foxy Brown.

Novella was loved by many and will be missed but never forgotten. She leaves behind her mother, Leona Smalls; father, Henry Seawright; baby sister, Sharon Seawright; aunt, Barbara affectionately known as auntie “Bobbie”; uncle, Anthony; and a host of cousins and dear friends.

We loved Novella but God loved and knew her best. Sleep In Peace.
