Randolph, Ohio. Kera Leskovec got married to her husband Kevin on June 27th, 2015, and the man who photographed their special day would later say that they had a very special kind of love for one another.
This summer, Kera and Kevin welcomed their daughter Avalee into the world.
Just 4 months after Avalee was born, Kevin sadly passed away after becoming ill from COVID-19. Kera posted a tribute to her husband on Facebook, along with a thank you to her loved ones for their support.
“I cannot thank everyone enough for all of their love & support over the last several weeks. All of your kind words, prayers, and positive vibes have been amazing,” she said.
“I have not had to worry about cooking a meal which has been such a great relief. Avalee has received many gifts and is one very loved little girl. I sincerely cannot express how grateful I am to have so much support.”

“For those of you who keep asking what you can do, just remember to keep checking in on Avalee and I throughout the next year. We will continue to need everyone’s love and support.”
“I have truly been blessed to call Kevin a friend for 13 years and a husband for 6 years. Words can’t express how much I will miss him. He left me with the greatest gift of all, sweet baby Avalee.”
“She will grow up hearing amazing stories of her Dad, and I have no doubt she will know how much he loved her. Kevin, I will love you forever and always. You will be so missed!”
