Dear Audrey Sandberg; Todd,Troy and Craig Vizenor and families; sister Lynette and family and grandchildren: Cayden, Kolton, Landen, Ty, Drew, Ashton and Linea Vizenor,

I was crushed to hear of Ava’s illness and passing… I went to Junior High and High school with her, graduating with her as a member of the famous Eureka High School, Class of ’62. I would like you all to know that Ava’s spirit, along with our other cheer and song leaders helped to create the solid life-long bond...

It is with sadness and great sorrow to learn of Ava's passing. As a classmate (EHS '62) I remember her as a person of vibrancy and vivaciousness, graced with great inner beauty. We who were fortunate to have known Ava are truly blessed. Godspeed, my friend.

Dear Audrey, Todd, Troy, Nancy, Craig, Marci, Lynnie and Tom,
Ava has left such a wonderful legacy behind in all of you and in those of us who have had the pleasure of knowing her. I've known Ava since the 2nd grade when we went to what was known as Little Lincoln, which was the annex behind the present Lincoln School. It doesn't exist anymore. On rainy days we would play tag in the hall. The boys and girls would chase each other and the only "safe" place was the restroom. Ava was the...

Ava's family,
We were school mates and yell leaders together at EHS, Class of 1962. Our memories will remain forever as whe was a wonderful lady, a good person, and she loved life. We both came back home after being away for some time. She was loved by many and touched the lives of so many people, especially mine. She will remain a good buddy, a dear friend, and her bell in heaven will ring many times. Much love to you all, she gave us lots......Kit and Paulette Corbin

I just read in the hospital newspaper of Ava's passing, I was so shocked. We all loved Ava and as a nurse, we always asked for her to do our mammograms. I did not realize she was ill. Please know that my thoughts are with your family. I am so sorry. She will be missed at St. Joseph's.

I was deeply saddened to learn of Ava's passing. I worked as an x-ray tech at St. Joseph Hospital & various doctors offices with Ava. She was always so much fun and always had a smile. I will keep all of you in my prayers at this most difficult time. My deepest and sincere sympathy to all.

To Ava's family.. my deepest sympathy in your loss. I've known Ava since Jr. High, High School, and then St. Joseph's X-ray Dept. I trained there with Pam (Hill) Zeck and Ava. She was such a delight to be with. Always a smile and her infectious laugh. I'm so sorry that she couldn't have more time to be with all of you... she was much too young. God bless you all. Mary Lou, Angela, and Randy Knapp and families.

To Todd, Troy and Craig,

I am very sorry to hear about your mother's death. I know you all miss her a lot. Hang together through these tough times. Three is definitely stronger than one. My thoughts are with you all.

Sincerely,

Coach Ball

Todd,
