The two were married on June 10, 1972, and on October 9, 1974 they were blessed with a baby girl, Jennifer Nell Camp.
Ava Jo was a 1st grade teacher for over 30 years. She invested countless hours as a dedicated teacher, and as acclaimed by many, she made a difference in the lives of her students. In a fitting display of recognition, Mrs. Ava Jo Camp was honored with the 1986 - 1987 Teacher of the Year Award from Wynnewood Public Schools.
After retiring in 2004, Ava Jo Could be found landscaping and gardening around her house. Under her dark wood pergola and around her pristine lawn, she was proud of the hours she spent creating her own backyard paradise of colorful flowers and carefully manicured poolside trees. Yet, above all else, her single biggest joy in life came from her family whom she loved unequivocally - her husband, Roger; her daughter, Jennifer; and most especially her grandchildren, Cole and Beau. They were always together in life, and they were with her, holding her hand, at the difficult end. Her legacy of graceful tenacity and charming determination as a wife, mother, and grandmother will live within them forever.
