Xavier University honored late graduate Oluwabukola Pereira during the Saturday commencement at Cintas Center.
Pereira was shot and killed after attempting to stop a theft at her place of work in Lockland on May 8.
โShe was known for her positivity, deep faith, and generous spirit โ hallmarks of a life lived in service to others. Friends describe her as kind, honest, intelligent, and beautiful โ inside and out,โ Xavier said in a statement last week.
Pereira's husband Gbenga Showole accepted her degree at the graduation ceremony.
