Ava Alicia Alex MacWright

Ava was born on August 29, 2019, at UVA Hospital in Charlottesville. From the moment she entered this world, Ava had a smile on her face. She loved to be held and snuggled by her mother, listening to her grandfather "Pa" whistle, hanging out with her grandmother "Ma" in her art studio, and her big brother Anthony always making her laugh. Ava was well known on Facebook for her big smile, beautiful blue eyes, and infectious laugh.

Ava was preceded in death by Great Maternal Grandparents; Eugene MacWright, Virginia MacWright, and Frances Harding

Ava's memory will be cherished by her loving mother, Krista MacWright, Big Brother; Anthony Robert Rudnick, Maternal Grandparents; Robert MacWright and Alicia Cox MacWright, Maternal Great Grandfather; Chauncey D. Cox, her aunt; Jennifer "Auntie Jen" Hall-Taylor, Cousins; Jarred Hall, Austin Hall, and Olivia Taylor. She will also be missed by her extended loving family of many Great Aunts, Great Uncles, and cousins.

A private graveside service will be held at Holly Memorial Gardens in Charlottesville. A Memorial Service to celebrate Ava’s life will be held at a later date, details to be announced.

The family welcomes you to send flowers for Ava's graveside service no later than Friday, May 1, to Teague Funeral Service; or, you may make a donation in Ava's memory to the UVA NICU.
