She lived in De Queen, Arkansas, with her parents, Levi Tabor and Kylie Perez, who adored her deeply.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"504\" data-end=\"782\">On a tragic day in early March, Ava was being babysat by 19-year-old Wesley Davis in Lockesburg when he called 911, claiming she was unresponsive. He later reportedly confessed to beating her. Ava was flown to Arkansas Children\u2019s Hospital but sadly passed away on March 4, 2025.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"784\" data-end=\"909\">Her mother shared a heart-wrenching farewell online, vowing justice: \u201cYOU TOOK MY WORLD&#8230; I LOVE YOU, AVA.
