How do I live without you?
Oh my love I do not.

You are with me from the moment I open my eyes until they close.
And even after that,
on the plane of dreams where mortals and souls meet,
you are with me still.

"I have not yet learned to live without you,
and perhaps I never will,
the truth of the matter is,
you are always with me still."

You walked such a blazing pathway, when your feet were on this earth, that your imprint lingers on and I place my own feet in your steps, one by one.

How do I live without you?
It´s really very simple.
I do not.

"I have yet to live without you
perhaps I never will,
perhaps the key to grief is,
you are always with me still."

- From `LOSS´ by Donna Ashworth

Love you through eternity, my cheek. Mom

I was blessed with the honor of having Ava as a freshman in English while also having Nate as a senior. They both shared with me the memory of sitting on their father´s lap while he read books to them and how they loved when he read each character with a different voice. It was a very special memory for them and I believe they felt forever impacted by it. Ava was ALWAYS eager to read aloud in class and when she did it was magical. She read with ease. She with inflection. She read with passion. We were very lucky to have her presence in the classroom. Ava was also always kind and compassionate to others. She made you feel comfortable and welcomed. I also had the pleasure of seeing her perform in a couple concerts at school as well. It was heartwarming to see her gift, love and talent for performing transcend to a place outside of the classroom. Ava is a sweet soul. I believe she is with us. I believe she is reading with passion. I believe she is singing. This earth will miss her physical presence but I know her spirit is still shining bright. Love you Ava...see you in the sunshine

Ava was like one of my closest friends I would call her my bestfriend. We had such little time together I wish I could go back and relive it all. She always knew how to light up a mood, she always could make you laugh, seeing her in school made my whole school day. It´s gonna be so hard to live life without you ava.you and your family were the sweetest people. We were just talking about the collages we were going to and our future plans and graduation and that English essay we´d know we´d get a good grade on so many things that we didn´t get to do together. your were the most sweetest person I´ll love you and miss you forever.
