Ava Rose Whitehouse, 4 months, infant daughter of Stuart Whitehouse and Darian Smothers, passed away Wednesday, April 06, 2022. She was born November 18, 2021 in Louisville, KY. Ava was the happiest baby you could've asked for, and definitely the cutest you could ever see. She would always have the biggest smile on her face every time she saw her mom or dad. She loved all of the attention and when she didn't have it, she would definitely make it known she was this perfect little gift from God. Anytime you were having a bad day all you had to do was look at her and she would make you feel like everything in the world was going to be ok. She was the light in a world full of darkness, life will never be the same without her, but we know she's in a much better place and she is suffering no longer. Mommy and daddy love you and are going to miss you more than anything. You were always the gift that kept on giving, you will always be our little Rose.

She was preceded in death by her maternal grandmother, Barbie Raley; maternal great-grandfather, Jimmy Raley; and uncle, Garland Smothers.

Besides her parents, Ava is survived by her brother, Brentlee Mitchell Whitehouse; paternal grandparents, Mark Brown and Melody Whitehouse; maternal grandfather, Chris Smothers; paternal great-grandparents, Linda Amos Brown, and Bobby and Mary Jo Whitehouse; maternal great-grandparents, Kimberly Smothers, Dewayne Henderson, and Mary Linda Raley.
