Obituary of Avery Rose Boltin

Avery Rose Boltin went to be with the lord on February 15, 2022. She bravely faced all of her life’s challenges, and she now is able to rest.

Avery was a very happy girl. Her and her trusted sidekick, Princy the Penguin lived in Lexington, SC. She was the number one fan of Cocomelon and loved to hear the songs on repeat. She also liked to look out the windows, wave to the world, and check out the birds when they came by to visit her. She loved to be read to, play with balloons, and had just learned to peekaboo. Anyone who caught one of her powerful left hooks knows how strong she became. She was also quite the trickster, as she learned how to pretend to be sleepy so people would leave her alone so she could get back to her Coco songs. Her other favorites included snuggling with Mom, Grammy and Gaga and private concerts. "You are my Sunshine" was her favorite song.

Although her life on earth was too short, Avery left behind enough love for all. Avery is survived by her mother and father, Brandi and James Boltin; her grandparents, Anthony and Lora O’Quinn (Grammy & Pappy); grandparents, James and Jennifer Boltin (Papa & Gaga); Aunt and Uncle Jake and Kayla Kranenberg, Aunt Lauren Boltin and Rachel Hoard, Uncle Stephen Boltin; and Great Aunt and Uncle, Jim and Deb Harbison.

Although Avery is with God, she will continue to watch over those who loved her. Maybe she will check in on her Grammy by sending a bird to the feeder she used to watch. Perhaps she will send her mom a breeze with the faint smell of coconut to remind her she is safe. She loved her family so much, and they feel so fortunate that they got to love her. She was the light of love in this world.
