In memory of Avery Tolar

We remember Avery Tolar, a man of great intelligence, charm, and complexity. Though flawed, he was fiercely loyal in his own way, navigating a world of high stakes with wit and wisdom. Beneath the sharp suits and sharp mind was someone who, in his final moments, sought redemption. May he be at peace, free from the burdens that once weighed so heavily upon him. Those who knew him will remember not just his brilliance, but the humanity beneath it. Rest easy, Avery.

Avery was far from perfect, and he knew it. But beneath all the mistakes and the mess, there was a man who still cared—maybe more than he let on. In his own way, he tried to help when it mattered, and for that, I’ll always be grateful. I hope he’s found the peace that always seemed just out of reach. Rest easy, Avery. 🩷
