Eva Jellison wrote a sympathy message

“I got to know Avery coaching against him and later while he refereed my students. I really loved his fencing - beautiful technique and footwork. He was always a worthy and gracious opponent. He was a very talented referee with a even temperament and a warm but commanding presence. I was always grateful to see him at the strip. If I did, I could be assured good conversation, excellent calls, and the right environment for my fencer's growth. My deepest condolences to his family and friends.”

Alex Gioiella wrote a sympathy message

“Avery was an absolute bright spot, and I am grateful for the privilege of having refereed him, and reffed with him, but even more grateful for the honor of having called him a friend. If I knew nothing else about Avery, I knew that he loved his family with all his heart, and his sister Marley most of all. He spoke tirelessly of her, and only ever with love. I wish him peace in whatever his path beyond this life holds.”
