Ava Ann Warner
Ava Ann Warner, age 16, of Paris, Kentucky, met Jesus face to face on January 22.
Ava was born Thursday Dec. 23, 2009 and became the beloved daughter of Holly and Dean Warner and a cherished sister to Samuel Warner, Brielle Warner, and Jacob Warner. She was deeply loved by her family and brought joy, warmth, and gentleness into their lives every day.
Ava was home-schooled and also attended Bourbon Co. High School. She was deeply rooted in her Christian faith. She was very active in her church New life Assembly of God, being active in the youth group, helping in the nursery, cleaning and even mowing the yard occasionally. She lived her life with a quiet strength, kindness, and love for God that was evident to everyone who knew her. She had a smile that would light up any room.
She loved the outdoors and especially enjoyed fishing and hunting, finding peace and happiness in nature. Ava had a special love for animals and cared deeply for all of them. She adored her dog, Ellie, and took great joy in caring for her rabbits and goats, tending to them with patience and a nurturing heart that reflected who she was.
Ava also loved taking photos, capturing the beauty she saw around her, and enjoyed simple moments like feeding the fish. She was known for being very sweet and caring, and she gave the best hugs—the kind that made you feel truly loved and comforted.
Ava is lovingly remembered by her grandparents, Kevin and Paula Griffiths, Dale and Terry Warner, Judy Turenne and along with many other family members, friends, and her church family who will forever cherish her memory.
Though her time on this earth was far too short, Ava accomplished so much in her 16 years. Her life was filled with faith, love, and compassion. Her beautiful spirit will live on forever in the hearts of all who were blessed to know her.
A visitation was held Saturday, January 31, 2026 at 10:00am with a memoral service following at 12:00pm at Living Water Chuch in Mt. Sterling, KY.
