Hi everyone. It has been 2 years since we lost our sweet Ayva. No words can express the hole that her loss has left within all of us, but it’s been especially difficult for Aaron. He lost his baby girl, and nothing is ever going to make that better. However, one thing he always asks his loved ones to do is remember Ayva and the legacy she left behind. I would love to surprise him with an Ayva memorial bench at a park Aaron and Ayva used to practice basketball together at that holds a very special place in Aaron’s heart. It would mean so much for all of us to have somewhere to go to pay respect, sit with Ayva, and honor her memory.

If you feel inclined, please consider donating to help us make this happen. If you’re unable to contribute, please just continue to keep my family and my brother in your prayers. Keep in mind that this is a surprise so please only share with people privately! The upcoming trial is going to be extremely difficult for Aaron, and I would love to be able to share this with him as a little reprieve from the stress that he is under. 

Thank you so much for supporting our family the past couple of years. We cannot express how much it has meant, and we appreciate your continued love, support, and prayers. 

With love, 

AnDee
