Ava’Lynn Love-Diane Williams
was born on April 10, 2024, at Grant Medical Center in
Columbus, Ohio, to her parents, Jason Edwin Williams
and Keyanna J. Smith-Williams. Ava’Lynn was always
called “Ava” for short. She was born 28 weeks early.
Every person who saw Ava instantly fell in love with her
as she was always a happy baby and smiling.
While Ava may have been fiesty like her mom, she stole
her dad’s face. Ava made everybody who met her happy
and always smiling with her. While her parents will
always miss her, they will always be thankful for the
one year the Lord blessed them with such a beautiful,
loving little child as sweet as Ava’Lynn was.
Ava’Lynn was preceded in death by her grandmother,
Glenda Diane Smith; great-grandparents, Betty
Williams and Leroy Thompson; and uncles, Angel
Smith and Gregory Holsome, Jr.
She is survived to cherish her memories: her parents,
Jason Williams and Keyanna Smith-Williams;
grandfather, Freddie Smith of Bakersfield, CA;
grandmother, Lois Williams; aunts, Unique Smith of
Bakersfield, CA, Capricia Henderson of Sacramento,
CA, Irene Gilardone of Santa Maria, CA, Anita
Williams, Danielle Williams, and Vivian Ford (Jack) of
Cleveland, OH; uncles, Raymond Williams and Elijah
Joshua Williams; great-aunts, Carolyn Williams and
Patricia (Ringo) Williams; great-uncle, James Williams
of Akron; siblings, Ali’jah, Amire, Ka’Laiya, Kaileigh,
Prince’Jeremiah, Angel, and Kennedy; several cousins
and friends; special aunt, Kamia Canaday; and LaNita

“Ava’Lynn Love-Diane was her dad’s sunshine.”
“Avawava” was the nickname that her mom always
called her.
