DaVita, Diva as many of us called her. Was a beacon of light,a beautiful spirit and a good friend. Always bringing us laughter until we were faced with tears. The cookouts, girls-day-out and the celebration of family milestones, will not be the same without you. You were one of few that possessed both beauty inside and out! The Ward Family, you will remain in our thoughts and prayers.
