Avery H. Fonda, 82, died on May 24, 2003. Sarah W. Fonda, his devoted wife to whom he was happily married for 52 years, survives him. Two stepsons found him to be a true father and a loving husband for their mother.
Avery was born in Brevard and spent his early years living in Weaverville. He attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and for most of his life was widely respected for his expertise in the banking industry. Retiring to Weaverville in 1987, he was an excellent gardener, making his home a lovely example for his neighbors.
The family held a private memorial for him at the Riverside Cemetery, which was officiated by Rev. Dr. Richard Smyth of Central Methodist Church, where the Fonda's are members.
