Avery Elaine Manfull

Avery Elaine Manfull, infant daughter of Michael Lee and Krista Elaine (Kamban) Manfull of New Philadelphia, went home to be with the Lord on Sunday, October 7, 2012 from Akron Children’s Hospital.

Born on August 31, 2012 in Aultman Hospital at Canton, Ohio, Avery was diagnosed shortly thereafter with Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type I.

In addition to her parents, she will be dearly missed by her grandparents, Tim and Becky Kamban of Dover and Shirley Manfull of Canton and Sam Manfull of Navarre as well as many other extended family members.

Cremation has been conducted through the care of Geib’s Tuscarawas Valley Crematory at Dover. Father Jeff Coning will celebrate a Mass of Christian Burial on Friday, October 12, 2012 at 10:30 a.m. in Sacred Heart Catholic Church at New Philadelphia. A memorial luncheon will be held in St. Ambrose Hall at the church following Mass.

Those wishing to do so may send the family a personal condolence and light a candle in remembrance of Avery by visiting the funeral home website.

The family requests that in lieu of flowers memorial contributions be sent to Families of Spinal Muscular Atrophy, 925 Busse Road, Elk Grove Village, IL 60007 or by visiting www.fsma.org.
