Not sure what to say?

Ava was one of the most fascinating people I´ve ever known. We would sit and talk for hours, and it was her passion for teaching and mostly her passion for her family that inspired me. Whether it was eating together or hearing her warn me over and over to not get too close to Seamus, we always shared laughs. Although Ava was part of my life for a relatively short time, the impact of knowing her will live in my heart forever.

Dear finnerty family sending our deepest condolcences available was a lovely dear person who pleasure of knowing kathleen j spanarkel

Ava was a dearie. She didn't like my dog but she was kind to my cats. There wasn't a day that I didn't think of her and her lovely manor. I loved her shoes too. Very stylish. I used to call her Ava Gabor. She will be missed.

I feel bad that I cannot make it to the funeral parlor or mass. Want to say that she always had a smile for everyone and had a great sense of humor. My deepest sympathy for her family.
