Anita, Ariel was so blessed that God chose you guys as her parents. And we truly thank you for allowing her to be a part of our lives through His Ability Over Disability and the Special Olympics. Her smile, enthusiasm and attitude taught us important lessons about God's unconditional love.  Ariel's words, "Stay in your lane baby" during practices always put a smile on our faces and joy in our hearts. 

Whether in practice or local competitions, Ariel always did her best. Her best was always good enough and even allowed her to compete at the Special Olympics Ohio State University. So many good times and good memories; Ariel will be greatly missed.

We extend our condolences to each of you and the family and pray for strength, comfort and peace as only God can give. 

Yours in Christ, Marion and Coach Vee
