Attention AVHS Community: It is with heavy hearts that we share the unexpected loss of one of our own, Mr. Joel Rios. Mr. Rios was more than a bus driver and assistant baseball coach at our school. He built meaningful relationships with students and staff, always offering encouragement, guidance, and a smile.
Mr. Rios was a devoted husband, loving father, cherished son, loyal friend, and dedicated little league coach. Now, his family needs our support.
A GoFundMe account is in place to help his family ease the financial burden of funeral expenses, providing assistance to his wife and children during this incredibly difficult time. You can donate using the link in our bio.
If you are unable to donate, please keep the Rios family in your thoughts and prayers and consider sharing this fundraiser with others. You can also leave a card or note for the family at our campus front desk.
Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and for helping us honor the life and legacy of Mr. Rios. His compassion, dedication, and love for others will continue to live on in the countless lives he touched.
