Avalon Grant, Hampton, VA—The community mourns the passing of Avalon Grant, who passed away on September 6th, just a week after his 31st birthday. Avalon endured a lifelong battle with sickle cell disease, which eventually led to his final moments spent on a ventilator during the last three weeks of his life.
Avalon’s passing has deeply affected his wife, Amber Grant, who was steadfastly by his side throughout his illness. The couple shared a unique love story that began when they attended a ring dance as teenagers and grew into a remarkable 11-year relationship, five of which they spent as a married couple. Amber was a constant source of support for Avalon, fiercely advocating for him and educating others about sickle cell disease during their frequent hospital visits.
Angel White has organized a fundraiser to support Amber during this incredibly difficult time. The financial burden from medical treatments, doctor visits, intensive care, and end-of-life services has been overwhelming. The fundraiser, with a goal of $20,000, aims to help Amber as she transitions from a two-income household to one.
Avalon’s struggle with sickle cell disease, a genetic disorder that affects red blood cells, is a reminder of the daily challenges faced by those with this condition. The community is asked to keep Amber Grant and the Grant family in their thoughts and prayers during this heart-wrenching period.
We extend our deepest sympathies to Amber, their family, and loved ones. Our hearts are with you as you navigate this painful loss.
