Sarah, we are heartbroken and shattered to hear about Avery's passing. We remember every wonderful thing you said about him and we remember seeing you, him, and Mark at Ithaca Fest a couple of years ago--he had such a radiant and soulful face. You could tell immediately what a special person he was, and he was so lucky to have you as a mother. We are holding you all in our hearts right now.

Offering my sincere sympathy for the loss of your dear Avery. There is no greater loss that a parent can endure. I lost my son over 25 years ago, when he was just 16. I didn't know your son, but wanted to say that I will keep him and your family in my prayers. This is a very difficult journey. May God walk with you in the coming days.

A passing to young, a life gone to quickly. A hole in your heart, that you wonder if it will heal. His mark is all that is left . The memories of times past. The pictures of events to remember. The items collected as time went by. These are the things most of us think of, but truly, his mark on the world was greater to some, to those who were able to call him son, brother, friend, those who were shaped, whos course in life was altered, My heart goes out to you as your heart begins to mend.

Dear Family... you probably do not know me, but I have had the greatest pleasure to spend time with Avery during his 7th and 8th grade years. He was always so kind, warm, and caring. Everyday when I entered his 8th grade Math class, regardless of what was going on, he would always say to me, "Good morning, Mrs. Hamlin!" with his sweet smile and sparkling eyes. I will miss seeing him on occasion in Damascus also when he would visit his friends and family there. He will be remembered always! My heart goes out to you.

We are all grieving as a family. We love Avery with all of our hearts and will always hold him close. There's no way of understanding the "why"....but I know he was deeply loved. It's such a painful reminder that there are no guarantees in life. We were so blessed, as a family, to have had Avery in our lives. We love you all and wish we could all be there to help and be a support. Hopefully we can be together soon. All our love and prayers.
