Help Ava Thrive After Losing Her Mother, Tara

Dear friends and family,

I come to you today with a heavy heart to share some devastating news. My sister, Tara, unexpectedly passed away on June 22, 2024, leaving behind her daughter, Ava, under her grandmother’s care.

Ava, at just 11 years old, is a remarkable young woman who has shown great strength during this very difficult time. She works hard to achieve good grades and participates in school plays, chorus, and plays the viola. Ava also loves sports, actively involved in swimming, cheerleading, and basketball.

With the loss of her mother, Ava's life has been flipped upside down. I’m committed to ensuring that she continues to have the opportunities she deserves. I believe in keeping her active and engaged, as it teaches her important life skills while helping her cope with her grief. By supporting Ava's activities and future, I aim to provide her with the tools and opportunities she needs to thrive.

Any contribution, no matter the size, will make a difference in Ava's life. Your generosity will enable her to continue pursuing her passions, building character, and embracing the important lessons life has to offer.

I’m extremely grateful for all the love and support since Tara's passing. Your kind words and comfort have lifted our spirits.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

With a broken heart,

Aunt Candy Brooks
